Favourites option disabled in GNOME Maps

I like OpenStreetMaps as it very nice alternative to maps.google and is supported on many platforms.
However I would like to save favourites and the button in top right corner is grayed out.
EDIT: What's here after right clicking on the map returns Nothing found here!
According to this tutorial it should work. Do you have any idea where's the problem?
The version of GNOME Maps I am using is 3.26.1.

Try:
- right-clicking on a map location
- choosing What's here?
- clicking the star icon to add it to favourites

Try the flatpak version of gnome-maps: https://flathub.org/apps/details/org.gnome.Maps
It has worked for me on Ubuntu 18.04 x64: favorites are back and search function works as expected.
1. Install Flatpak
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:alexlarsson/flatpak
sudo apt update
sudo apt install flatpak
2. Install the Software Flatpak plugin
sudo apt install gnome-software-plugin-flatpak
3. Add the Flathub repository
sudo flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https://flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo
4. Restart (if necessary)
5. Install Gnome-Maps via Gnome-Software or via the command line
sudo flatpak install flathub org.gnome.Maps
6. Run the app
flatpak run org.gnome.Maps
