I agree that the idea is great but I have yet to find one single address that I need to get to using the osmand app, which kind of makes it useless. It seems incredibly difficult to use.
It’s because OsmAnd has some serious issues searching for certain addresses. It’s not an OpenStreetMaps problem, but an issue with the app. Organic Maps is better. Magic Earth is even better. Note: only talking about address searching. OsmAnd still has a ton of other useful features.
If I need to use OsmAnd, sometimes I’ll copy the plus code from Google Maps, as that translates to GPS coordinates.

North America? You need this: https://github.com/pnoll1/osmand_map_creation/releases
are there any OSM maps that have the addresses?
I can see the addresses in Osmand but can’t search them in the app
Ah yes, you are right, I guess I just look on the map once I have found the street, knowing approx were it is
