Updating ABRP Map and using coordinates to assign specific places

I can't add a house, or any other address I want to save, with coordinates.

The street database you're using doesn't include the numbering on some of the streets. When you search, it takes you to an indeterminate location within the searched area. One solution would be to be able to pinpoint the location with coordinates, but it doesn't save them—it just shows you the name of the nearest street.

    Hi,

    Thanks for reporting this! Our map data comes from OpenStreetMap (OSM), which is a community-driven map project. The best way to get this fixed is to correct the map directly on OpenStreetMap.org.

    Once the changes are made in OSM, they will eventually be reflected in a future ABRP map update.

      Hi, this may be a solution. Another way for fixing it, easier for me, would be to be able to assign my home to it’s coordinates, which ABRP does already provide when clicking anywhere in the map. Yet a better way, could be that I would be able to correct the map in ABRP, my provider, and ABRP manages to correct it wherever he takes his thata (I do not care at all).

      Best regards

        Ill change this post to a feature request, to be able to assign home or work by its coordinates seems like a smooth and good way in order to not fully rely on OSM.

          Thanks!

          I’ve partially solved this by adding a marker to the point, assigning the “home” icon to it and upping it in the markers list.
