Hamlet Silver Gate is in Montana but in GPS Navigation & Maps app it is in Wyoming. Why?

0

I have a problem to find the hamlet Silver Gate (45.006884, -109.9896288) in Montana, US in the GPS Navigation & Maps app. On the OSM web page it is there since 2008. I can't find the village in Montana or Wyoming. If I press on the US 212 High Way in Silver Gate I get the message the place is in Wyoming. But this is not true, the road and the village is in Montana. What do I have to change that the GPS Navigation & Maps app can find the hamlet?

Perhaps you're talking about this Android application? If so you'll need to contact the author of it - OpenStreetMap isn't responsible for how 3rd-party applications are written; it just provides the data. As you say, searching for "Silver Gate" in OpenStreetMap works OK, so there's nothing wrong with the data.
