I use OSMAnd and the search is a lot better, not sure what client you are using.

Oh I'm running osmand~ and comaps and magic earth.

And by running I mean I occasionally confirm its still not good enough yet

StreetComplete to help fill in the gaps. GeoShare to translate google/apple maps locations to geocoordinates for OSM, and then adding the place in OSMAnd if you login with the OpenStreetMaps editor plugin. This is how those of us who adopted Google Maps early added so much of their data..

Right, so it works real well if you already know where you're going.
