Hello,
I'm hoping someone can give me some advice.
I want to plan a trip to B.C. in Canada (I'm currently in a different province of Canada).
I want to prepare some POI I want to visit with the help of OSMAnd.
I tried to lookup some addresses but the app says "try to increase the search area" but that doesn't help either.
How can I add the desired locations to my POI?
Thanks for any suggestions.

Hi!

You can try a step-by-step address search in the Menu: Search > Address > Select City. If it doesn't find the needed address, it may not have been added to OpenStreetMap.

You can tap on a POI on the map or long-tap on any point on the map. A context menu will open, allowing you to add this point as a Favorite and organize it into folders, or save it as a track waypoint and organize it into folders linked to the track

I figured it out for myself.
I will add those POI's on OSM web.
