       Is there an android open street maps app that is not terrible for searching an address?

       @kelbot That's always been an issue for me. I cheat with mapquest.

       @kelbot the lack of a good app is why I'm still using Google maps 😕

       @DistroJunkieIt is extra frustrating because the apps are otherwise pretty good. But you can't just paste an address in and have it find it. It's ridiculous.

       @kelbot Yeah, that's the dream. It's why Google's last real hold over me is still Waze.

       @ajdunevent @kelbot I started working on something using OpenAddresses, but the data in there requires a LOT of cleanup. I'm guessing we won't get anything anytime soon because OSM won't incorporate authoritative data, so there would need to be a separate rather large project to build and maintain the geocoding database.
