How can I see my new added point in maps me - it is not visible after actualisation of the map

0

I added 3 days ago a few hostels in Havana, Cuba and do find them woiithout any problem in OSM on any Computer but still can't see them in maps.me after the actualisation of the map of Cuba. And trying with the mobile phones of friends they are not able to see them after the actualisation of the map either. some of the new added points are for example - Hostal Aissa in Havana https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/5157819119 - Casa Havana in Havana https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/52772050 Support of maps me says that the actualisation is done every minute and after actualisation of the map it should be visible. Would be great if somebody can help

The maps seen in Maps.me are offline maps and are typically updated only when the app itself is updated. This means you'll have to wait up to 2 weeks for new entries to appear in Maps.me. Note that OSM and Maps.me are separate entities. Maps.me merely builds its maps from OSM data.

What are you basing the 2 week time on? In my experience updates of maps.me are few and far between, and it's more like two months between updates. That said I haven't been tracking it very closely, and may have failed to note the frequency accurately.
