I use Mobile Atlas Creator as well and I agree the OpenStreetMap 4UMaps are quite good but they are not as good as Ordnance Survey maps. Especially in the Highlands I find it very important to have more than just rivers and altitudes but also landscape features such as rocks, rockfaces, precipices etc. Things like that you'll not find on Openstreetmap maps.
In the end the map of choice is highly dependend on the area and the purpose. If I go walking over here in Saxony I would always prefer an OpenStreetmap map over any other map because I know that almost every track, path, road is featured in the map. It also makes no sense to walk cross country because there is always a path nearby. It is quite different in the Highlands especially in the remote areas. There are hardly any tracks at all and even if they exist they are not featured in Openstreetmap. A few of them are featured in the Ordnance Survey maps but in the end any walker will just walk cross country to the next Munro
Therefore it is important to have the aforementioned features on the maps or otherwise you could end up somewhere where you have to climb up or down a steep rockface.
