Apple does quite a lot of improvements on OpenStreetMap: https://github.com/osmlab/appledata

OpenStreetMap proven to be a highly accurate map in top US cities
Apple does contribute to OSM quite a bit, see around 4:00 in https://2020.stateofthemap.org/sessions/SPRQVZ/ for details of corporate contributions: "Apple is currently doing the most work on the map".
Here is the base repository of their contributions on GitHub: https://github.com/osmlab/appledata
And if I see this correctly, the #adt hashtag (for Apple Data Team) contains already +100000 changesets for this year alone: https://osmcha.org/?filters=%7B%22comment%22%3A%5B%7B%22labe...

Why Openstreetmap as a product fails to compete with Google Maps – part 1/3
Apple has an active team editing OpenStreetMap and their maps use OSM data in many countries. I see them making edits in my country regularly (they tag changesets with “#adt” so they’re quite visible). More info on the OSM wiki and their GitHub repo:

Wahoo equivalent of Garmin Connect, Lezyne GPS Root or Hammerhead Dashboard?
You are correct, Valhalla is used for routing. Maps are rendered on the ELEMNT, BOLT and ROAM with mapsforge, BOLT2 with vtm. To look at map files there is cruiser cruiser (mapsforge) and cruiser-gl (vtm). Create updated maps with wahooMapsCreator. There is also some documentation how to add POI's or make a custom theme.

for an example. It's perfectly smooth. The application is closed source but the underlying renderer (VTM) is LGPL3. The renderer, https://github.com/mapsforge/vtm, is basically an OpenGL alternative for the mapsforge offline maps format and maintained by the same guy (the original mapsforge renderer is arguably a bit slow, struggling to hide its slowness behind cached tile bitmaps).
What are some alternatives?
Geoadmin - Source code of map.geo.admin.ch. Managed by geoadmin/infra-terraform-github-bgdi
Mapsforge - Vector map library and writer - running on Android and Desktop.
StreetComplete - Easy to use OpenStreetMap editor for Android
openstreetmap-tile-server - Docker file for a minimal effort OpenStreetMap tile server
osmand_map_creation - OSM data + open address data compiled for use in OSMAnd
openrouteservice - 🌍 The open source route planner api with plenty of features.
omim - 🗺️ MAPS.ME — Offline OpenStreetMap maps for iOS and Android
osmscout-server - Maps server providing tiles, geocoder, and router
StreetComplete - Easy to use OpenStreetMap editor for Android [Moved to: https://github.com/streetcomplete/StreetComplete]
mapsplit - A fast way to split OSM data in to a portable tiled format
map2mc - Tool to generate a complete minecraft world out of a bitmap image (a map for example)
