I have tried organic maps for a bit, i like it, but the lack of geocoding made it not very useful to me.

Generally I want to plug in an address and navigate to it. Is that just a lack of data in my area?

Sounds like you dont have much data in your area. Organic maps draws from openstreetmap iirc, the same as apple maps i believe. That would be something you can work on.

the same as apple maps i believe

Apple only uses OSM in specific areas.

Interesting! I just checked. My data was incomplete then. Thanks for mentioning it! :)
