Does anyone know of an android map app that let’s you copy addresses? Waze is fucked and there are like 13 steps to copy it, or you can send someone an enshitification link…

And not google either. Fuck the alphabet

    The problem with OSM & Organic maps is that searching/finding an address is a completely alien process to majority of users. Find by intersection? whaaat?!

        Many adresses are not in the database. Just the road names. It makes it quite unusable for some countries, and I guess some US states.

        I just retried an earlier failure. When I search for the address with “avenue” it works but with “ave” it goes “I have no idea what you could possibly mean”

          Only works if the address your looking for it listed. Otherwise of still goes back to nearest junctions.

            If it’s missing, add it and you can find it in the future. It’s very easy

              I don’t know where it is though. That’s why I’m using the map. To find and search it.

              I’m not going to add every place I go to. And the lens I go to often. In know where they are!!

                I thought you wanted something that’s not google? You’ve got the chance to contribute to it. You don’t have to, but if you do, the places you visited will be there much faster. In my area there’s everything by now and much more than google has
