Finally StreetComplete has been approved on the App Store and everyone has now the possibility to download it: https://apps.apple.com/app/id6808344816

F-Droid download link: https://f-droid.org/packages/de.westnordost.streetcomplete/

PlayStore download link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.westnordost.streetcomplete

I highly suggest you this app in order to contribute to OpenStreetMap without background or any technical knowledge. Just open the app and answer to simple questions:

  • Does this crossing have an island?
  • Is this place still there?
  • What can be left here for recycling? Furthermore by completing more and more quests the app will reward you with links to (FOSS) maps for different purposes: wheelmap, indoor, graphhopper, touchmapper.

I truly believe that this is the solution and way to get as many contributors as possible to improve the map, and make us less dependent on BigTech.

In case you want to see the site, here it is: https://streetcomplete.app/
