Title is editorialized because the original is, frankly, clickbait garbage
It’s not locked, build it yourself or download the apk from fdroid. If that is too complicated for you (or anyone else), maybe pay for the service being provided then?
That just goes with a territory of having an iPhone. When you bought that device you signed on to a culture of consumption that is enforced by the developer of that device.
The developer can’t force Apple to let the developer give it to you for free. Apple doesn’t tolerate free very well and anything that is free on Apple is likely either a privacy nightmare or is paid for by some subscription you have with Apple.
This isn’t a problem with the app It’s a problem with the Apple.

If only there was some alternative like paying for the software you use 🙄
Because a subscription is definitely a viable alternative.
If it’s not viable for you, that’s a you problem.
You don’t need to charge a subscription for offline maps. That defeats the whole purpose of offline maps.
Edit: I could understand if it was a one time purchase, but as it’s a subscription, that’s the dumbest thing I’ve seen for an “offline maps app”
You can pay a one time fee for Maps+.
I didn’t see that option when I looked.
Edit: I see it now, but I believe it’s too expensive for an app that is supposed to give you directions.
That’s your choice as a consumer.
