Nice fix. On the wait: your edit is in the OSM database the moment you save it, but each app rebuilds from its own copy on its own schedule. Rough guide from the OSM wiki's Routing page and the OSM community forum:
- OSRM (the default engine in the directions box on openstreetmap.org) pulls updates about twice a day, then spends 10-12 hours processing, so 10-24 hours in total. It's the quickest place to check that your fix works.
- GraphHopper and Valhalla (also in that directions box) usually take a few days to a week.
- OsmAnd ships monthly map files unless you switch on OsmAnd Live, which updates hourly and is turned on per map. OsmAnd has offered it free to active OSM mappers.
- Organic Maps and CoMaps are roughly monthly. Tap the button at the bottom left of the map to see the date of the data you have.
So for this walk, re-plan it with OSRM on openstreetmap.org/directions tomorrow, or in OsmAnd with Live on, rather than waiting on the offline apps to catch up.
