I think there are plans to add a setting for custom map source servers. This would also allow the app to get rid of fdroids "dependant on centralized infrastructure" anti feature flag.
With organic it was per app update so monthly basically, but i would also like it if it were closer to weekly maybe. I dont know how much effort it is to compile the files or if it could be more or less automated.
Organic Maps still hasn't updated the map of Helsinki to include the two very important new bicycle patgs opened 1½ months ago, although a new OM version came out a few weeks after the routes had opened and immediately updated on Openstreetmap. I ended up finding about Comaps because of that, and on Comaps the new routes are shown correctly.
