Organic Maps has fewer features and settings and concentrates on what most people use the most (find an address, navigate to it).
It is also much, much faster than OsmAnd. -
Every time I try to navigate to an address that's missing in OSM, I just navigate to the nearest one instead. It's not a big deal.
And when I have 5 minutes of free time, I add the address.That's how OSM works. There isn't a dev or company to blame, you can literally fix the missing data yourself. And that's the only way it works.

Just tried: the 'report an issue'/'suggest an edit' button doesn't appear when The Gulf of Mexico is selected.
It does for other locations, but not for the Gulf.

Yes, based on nationalist reasons, to chnage facts to suit governments.
This is no different to google kowtowing to China's imagined borders.

The traffic conditions is huge tho
Just last week, that philly plane crash, I saw exactly where the roads are closed and which roads are congested.

It's because people already Mass reported it so they disabled the ability for it

Report an issue through the base report feature
Open maps > your profile picture > last option on the list
You can directly reference and include a screenshot of the map

Generally, Google shows the appropriate name based upon where you are located. So for everyone outside of 'murica, it's still the Gulf of Mexico.
-
Well. O. K.
Then it's my not the 'USA" that did this anymore. It's to be called "North Mexico" now. Fair's fair. -
They said that but it’s a fat lie.

Wow good work, my global ranking is #2449.
Ha, yeah it's good that you slowly clear out your local area because my SO did not appreciate me trying to answer questions while we walked.

Though to be fair cringe is like right in the very blood to Google anyway so what would you expect...
I mean, just look at how they often respond on their bug tracker platform of most of their products and how they try to justify their endless streams of questionable design decisions, that seems to be characteristic of them at this point lol
