- Try to keep things on topic
- If you have a question, please try searching for previous discussions, maybe it has already been answered
- Reposts are fine, but should have at least a couple of weeks in between so that the post can reach a new audience

You can use GMAPS VW, an app that uses the Google Maps web version. It cannot provide navigation, but it allows you to find any address just like on Google Maps, while maintaining your privacy.
Then, you click on "Share", copy the link, and paste it into another app called GeoShare. This app converts a Google Maps link into GPS coordinates.
Finally, you copy and paste the GPS coordinates into Organic Maps, which will locate the place for you.
All of these apps are open source.
