When you tap you house does it display the address or does it just say 'building'?
If it's the latter then like the other comment said the address is sadly not present in the map data and needs to be added first, you could do that yourself by signing up on openstreetmap.org or with an app like StreetComplete
The map is entirely volunteer made so unfortunately your whole area might not have addresses yet
It does just say building, but before tapping it shows my address (and only my address on my block). I'll get back on streetcomplete and start filling out my area
That is very strange. But thank you for your effort!
Oh you can also ask for help on the forum of course, it's quite active https://community.openstreetmap.org/
