The alternative is to keep location on (while in use), but download offline maps.

No idea if the app phones home with all historical location data if you re-enable data though...

Maybe that’s why Google likes to expire it’s offline maps ?

OsmAnd and MapsWithMe are good apps that you can use offline maps on indefinetly once downloaded. They use Openstreetmap of course.
