Street addresses don't work? (lemmy.ml)

Osmand doesn't appear to be able to locate street addresses. Like if I input something like "123 4th Street" all it can do is offer some cross streets, which may be miles away from my intended location.

Is there a way to augment it's data so street addresses work? Maybe there's a service I can add?

Similarly, it doesn't know the names of many businesses.

Weird answer... But it works. Kinda.

Try typing the number after the street name.

In your example: 4th Street 123
