Less than a second to something usable? Sure, it displays the O logo within a second, but on my phone (quad core 1.3 GHz ARM Cortex A7) it takes about 10 seconds to get to anything usable.
+1 .. probably 30 seconds on my old phone with a map of some 200M.

And about the OSM quality... There is one drinking water POI mapped near to me, but I hardly think that's an official public tap. I rather suspect that's someone's home garden tap.
Well, it would do the job I guess ;)
That is not quality but a lack of information.

Around me public bubblers are found in most public playgrounds, some parks (50%?), some public squares (40%?).

Very much depends on the local climate .. if you can open your mouth and get a drink there is not much point in providing another water source :)

OSMand starts for me in less than a second, however the nearest
drinking water is 150 miles away. Not many mapped and actually
struggling to think where I would find one.

I am looking for an application for Android displaying

just to almost immediately throw it out.

Any simple open source map displaying locations of some objects

would also be great - it should be fairly simple to adapt.

Osmand displays and can find drinking water.

In my experience OSMand starts for a long time, like maps.me [1]. Is
at least search
not taking any noticeable time?

Startup of OSMand takes quite some time yes, it annoys me too.
Searching
in the datafile of the Netherlands, some 850 MB, also takes a few
seconds. It is certainly not instant and if your impatient it can be a

bother.
But it does not take minutes.
