Is the area properly mapped in OpenStreetMap? Organic Maps uses OpenStreetMap data, if addresses are not present there, then it’s up to the users to add them.
I’d be careful of making sweeping statements about 3.7m square miles of land from your doorstep in LA.
I’m in the US too, and here in Atlanta I use Organic Maps frequently to find specific street addresses. It works quite well. I would agree with the other responses here suggesting that maybe you could contribute some data to OSM for the areas you encounter that are missing street numbers. You’ll be helping yourself and others!
Street address data isn’t available for the US. I find the POI in Google Maps in Firefox and then go to Share and open the coordinates in Organic Maps or OsmAnd.
Not under 50MB but there is: https://organicmaps.app/
And

I find Organic Maps best for driving and OSMAnd+ best for walks.
Organic maps can’t even handle addresses. How is this useful for driving?
Yes it can. You need to download the necessary maps first before you can search for addresses though.
It does handle addresses.
Not in the US. I have the world map and the los Angeles maps. It is incapable of recognizing any address that I give it

This is the address for the belasco in Los Angeles. It knows the names of the street but not the numbers. Without addresses it’s basically useless.
Clicking on any of these results will simply take you to that street at a random location on it.
For the UK, it doesn’t have house names/numbers, but streets + towns work fine.

I am in the US and street addresses are visible and searchable in Organic Maps for me. I don’t know if it depend on the area or something.
