It's not Organic Maps' fault, but that users haven't added those places to https://www.openstreetmap.org
Be the change you want to see, it's easy to add either through OM or the OSM website.
I’m not casting blame. I’m just mentioning a limitation/something people should expect
Is there a guide somewhere on how top do that?
@neosheo
It will first be available only for you, then at the next update it will be available for everyone (as it updates the maps themselves form OSM).
@NeonWoofGenesis
I'd advise you to jump right in. Create an account on osm.org and then click the "edit" button. There's quick demo that runs you through the basics and any time you're making changes you can tag them with "needs review" so that others can check your changes.
The documentation is pretty great and I've found it really easy to update/add new info around my area as-needed, which helps not just yourself but everyone else around you.
The data eventually makes it to https://www.qwant.com/maps, because they also use open street map data, which is a really nice UI to use on the desktop.
