[closed] Newly added paths (OSM) are not displayed

There seems to be a bug when zooming in/out out newly added data in the OSM cycle map:
Yesterday we hiked some mountain paths and in the evening uploaded them to OSM. Today, when checking the newly added paths, they ARE shown at on a large scale (map scale indicating 1.0 km). However, they are NOT shown when zooming in. Older paths are shown on (almost) any zoom level - sometimes, parts of paths are also not displayed.

Hi,
I think that the reason is that the map data is cached for offline use, and not refreshed every time you display the area (instead, the cached data is used).
So if you displayed an area before posting new data, then the new data won't be visible.
Cached areas are refreshed every 3 months, but if you need the new version right now, you can clear the cache to force a new download: long press a map in the Maps Explorer and select "Clear data".
Best regards

Sorry, I forgot to mention it: I already tried to clear the cached data before posting, but to no avail.
Not sure though whether it's the app or OSM... however, on the OSM main map (on the web) the paths are perfectly visible at any zoom factor. :roll:

Ok then...
Do you mind to post the coordinates of the area so I can have a look and compare both website and app renderings?
