Need Answer
Hello
Does anyone know which map I can use best, to clearly see the country borders in Europe? Or is there an option to show the country borders?

I can understand. Well there are following possibilities:
- customize the theme as mentioned earlier
- download the borders for example from https://www.naturalearthdata.com/downloads/10m-cultural-vectors/10m-admin-0-boundary-lines/
- convert the SHP to GPX or KML (for example in QGIS)
- import the file into Locus Map
BTW: our app Locus GIS can import the SHP directly. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=menion.android.locus.gis
EDIT:
Maybe the ideal option is WMS service with country border ( you can add it via Map Manager > WMS/WMTS tab > PLUS > add WMS link and set the URL https://maps.nccs.nasa.gov/mapping/services/base_layers/esri_world_administrative_divisions/MapServer/WMSServer
If you need precise boundaries please search the WMS or data services of your national geo institute

Which map (online/offline?) and which theme are you using?
If you use OAM offline maps, the administrative boundaries can be shown or hidden in the standard "Elevate" theme. This is also possible in many other third-party themes.
You can also customise the Elevate theme (edit with Editor) and make the boundaries thicker and/or change their colour to suit your taste, so that they stand out even more clearly.

You could create individual tracks of the boundaries and put them in a folder. Then show or hide the folder.
