minus-squareArsecroft@lemmy.sdf.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up6·9 months agoI have tried organic maps for a bit, i like it, but the lack of geocoding made it not very useful to me. Generally I want to plug in an address and navigate to it. Is that just a lack of data in my area?
minus-squarehauiAlinkfedilinkarrow-up8·9 months agoSounds like you dont have much data in your area. Organic maps draws from openstreetmap iirc, the same as apple maps i believe. That would be something you can work on.
