My approach to navigation problems in OSM AND ... 1) Fix the underlying map as you are already planning to do 2) Make sure you have the OSMAND+ with OSMAnd Live subscription. 3) Usually within a hour or sometimes more after you update, go to OSMAND and and select "OsmAnd Live". You should find your region in the list of Live updates. 4) Select the region and press UPDATE NOW.
If all goes well the map has been updated and you will be able to use the new information. I have done some informal timings about how long it takes to get the OSM changes into OSMAND+ (with Live): map details: within an hour or so navigation routing details: within 5 days The five days above is only because it took me 5 days to check. It may be much sooner, but then again, it might be variable. On Mon, May 18, 2020 at 9:59 AM Rob Romijn <[email protected]> wrote: > Thanks for your quick response. > Your suggestion doesn't work.
