Typically osmand offline uses a map that is a month or even two old. It's moderately expensive to download a new map every day in bandwidth etc. So that's probably the problem.
Somewhere there will be a date on the map which will give you a good indication of when the snapshot was taken. Even then allow three days for it to be processed.
