last release march 2020;

according to the OSM Wiki, Maps.me was sold in November 2020 and the source code was locked down. The original developers forked the app, reused old code and created Organic Maps.

Well that’s bittersweet. I did not realize it had been sold. At least it was forked though. Thanks for pointing that out!
