Both OSM and Organic Maps are SEVERELY lacking in businesses. So many places aren’t in the directory.

You search for fast food and only a couple pop up. Search for s fancy steakhouse by name, nothing. It shows about half of the weed dispensaries in my area…

Is there a way to update the “phonebook”?

Has shitgle been spending money trying to make all other maps unusable? It sure fuckin seems like it.

    Nearly all open source map apps (definitely OsmAnd and Organic Maps) use openstreetmap.org as a data source which is literally a wiki, ie. anyone can edit it. If there is a lot missing in your area on OSM, then please add those things yourself. It is exactly as good as volunteers made it.
