Wow. Major fail-and-uninstall for me: There's a repertory movie theatre across town I visit once a month and always use Google maps for traffic and routing advice. Magic Earth couldn't find it.
You can add it personally at openstreetmap.org
Hadn't considered that--you're right! 👍
I've discovered that it IS on OSM--but I had to search for the exact string ("aero american cinematheque").
Follow-up after using Magic Earth to navigate to an intersection up in the local hills: It worked, but I didn't like that it wasn't indicating street names in the read-aloud directions--just "turn left, turn right". That might be a must-have feature for me.
