I have added the street number on OSM and it's now visible on the OSM website for a day or two. You could see the building here: https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/414032764.
However, I'm still not seeing it or being able to search for it on OSMAnd mobile app. I do have OSMAnd Live. Do I just need to wait longer or did I do something wrong with that building?
