Using OSM is not unique amongst mapping apps. Almost every company's mapping app is using OSM data in some way.
The no ads bit is nice.
I don't think I properly understand the "no tracking" claim. I don't want to be tracked by miscellaneous third parties, but designers and engineers should absolutely be instrumenting the app so they can understand user behavior via empirical means.
I saw another comment mention they can update OSM via this app. That is def cool and I wish more apps supported that use case and educated users about it.
The topo map leaves something to be desired. Once you go Gaia Topo, it's hard to look at other companies' topo maps.
