Thanks Richard. A new version of SmartNavi (v2.4.0) is currently in staged rollout. Will be fully rolled out probably tomorrow.

Unfortunetaly with 2.4.0 MapquestOSM and Mapnik are no longer supported as map providers. Due to low usage of these map sources and high maintenance effort according to the changes of Mapquest and paid plans, the support has ended. SmartNavi is a free app without ads or inApp billing, so paid plans for a low used feature are not applicable.

That makes senses, yes.

Pretty sure you know that, but for completeness: There are other tile maps like openstreetmap or opencyclemap that may also work for you: See: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Slippy_map_tilenames#Tile_servers
