You can and you should contribute - Open Street Map
Today I found out that it's actually a lot easier to contribute to Open Street Map than I thought. There are some serious gaps in house addresses in my area and I was painstakingly using the built in browser editor in the browser.
But, you can use a FOSS app (available on fdroid) called StreetComplete that makes it a lot easier to help out filling in the gaps in your local map data.
It's really fun - kind of like Pokémon Go but you are actually making an impact 😁

If you'd like to be able to search for house addresses in osmand+ you can download these map packs.. A total life saver..

Wow why is that not part of OSM to begin with
Works fine in Germany without any Special Maps
What does that mean, what are you referring to, with or without the custom map, what does working fine refer to
As I said "WITHOUT" any custom/special map. I can enter my home address as is and the search / navigation works as expected - same as it would for gmaps, apple maps, ...
