OsmAnd+ is horrible at finding street addresses pasted in from emails, contacts, calendars, etc. When I'm in a time-crunch, this is a real pain. I end up switching to the 'public' profile just so I can use Google Maps.
Just had Claude build me a middleware app that takes a street address (editable prior to lookup, in case someone forgets town or state etc), converts it to LatLong, then sends it to OsmAnd+ -- which then works like a charm. "Simple as."
Would share but it's nowhere near something I'd want you all to see LOL
