Both apps locate me just fine, and in the maps I can see my address written on my house. I can tap it, and I see my full address.

When I search my address, both apps say it doesn’t exist. I’ve tried typing in some other addresses from around my city and have the same issue. I’ve tried “Address, Street” and “Street, Address,” searches.

What am I doing wrong?

    Trick:

    1.Download Gmaps WV (from FDroid - a Webview version of Google Maps). Dont give any permission. 2.Search the address you would like on this app 3. Then, click Share button and choose Organic Apps :) .

    It works without any problem!

        Hahah thank you!

        I think it should be pinned somehow. It is a nice fact to do your job very quickly without giving GPS Permission on Google

    I’m not 100% sure, because I didn’t use both in a while. But I think there was some weird “functionality” where you have to move the map somewhere near the adress you want to go to before it’ll find it when you type it into the search bar.

    Why that is? I don’t know at all.
