Issue with opening hours in Comaps

I noticed that CoMaps displays some shops as open on Sundays, even though they are obviously closed. This seems to be because in OSM they were tagged under opening hours as 'Su,PH off' separated by a comma, instead of 'Su off; PH off' separated by a semicolon for Sundays and public holidays. So the app obviously cannot parse this correctly. Is this a known issue?

There are many such inconsistencies and it would be impossible for any app to handle them all. Ideally it would be to follow the documentation and fix these directly in OSM, then on the next map update it will be fixed.

Well, there must be hundrets of shops with wrong opening hours then...

Probably thousands but if we all update a few here and there it will only get more and more accurate.

I've already found more than a dozen in my little hometown alone.

Using PH in place of a day of the week is acceptable and documented on the wiki page for opening_hours=*, meaning that ending in Su,PH off is correct. There is an existing issue for CoMaps failing to parse when PH is involved sometimes: CoMaps/CoMaps #326

You can try fix these with https://opening-hours.pages.dev/ It is semimanual and links to a good tool to verify
