Last I checked (about a year ago), the Google Maps app did work with microG (a FOSS reimplementation of Google Play Services).

I use maps on my phone on a regular basis - I would vastly prefer to have something less featured and stable versus hacking the crap out of my phone. But that's good to know.

OsmAnd is an absolutely brilliant map app for android. Very fully featured but also pleasant to use (though I dislike some of the defaults).
