So I wonder, when naviggating with an Android phone, what app do you prefer? I’m currently trying OsMand, but find that not very intuitive.

The Thork DMD application is good, but so is Osmand. If you have a €900 to spare the Thork/ Carpe Iter tablet with thumb control is very easy. You have a lot of screen real estate, so navigating is easy and very intuitive in bright sunlight. But is it €400 better than a Zumo? I'm not sure. I have one. I can listen to Spotify, navigate with GoogleMaps, or use the inbuilt system, which is very good. But, but, but it has let me down to the point I carry a spare Garmin device and mount. Or a phone cradle for a tough phone.
