One of the main things that keeps me from using essentially all OSM-based mapping apps as my primary is that search seems incredibly bad. I can't blend city and name, road and category, can't usually filter by features or open time, and results are almost always something like:

    - a result 500 feet away that sounds nothing like what you searched for
    - a result 23 miles away that shares one word but nothing else
    - a result 572 miles away that has a business name that contains exactly what was searched
    - ... nowhere is there an exact full-name match that is 1.3 miles away, which can easily be found by exploring the map

Are there any apps that do this better? Android and desktop (e.g. linux) ideally. I'd love to use them more, but I've had endless problems using them. Good map data is kinda useless if it can't be retrieved, and trying to work around it by panning around and manually saving a hundred or so favorites really kinda sucks.
