StreetComplete

A great, easy to use mapping tool for updating OpenStreetMap on the go, as a beginner, or both. It finds nearby items on the map that are missing information (street names, bike lane status, parking access, building levels etc.) and turns them into quests for you to fill in details around you. It's not very powerful, so if you want to add new paths or structures, you'll need another app (or a desktop). But what it does, it does very well, and I use it for most of my on-the-ground mapping.

What an amazing app! I love the clean and fun interface, and how it encourages exploration while also helping the amazing cause of OSM. The little rewards you get for fishing certain tasks are a lovely touch, and so are the links to different OSM Projects that you unlock along the way. In many years of using smartphones, this is the first review I've written because I REALLY wanted to give this app a bump. Highly highly recommend!!

Awesome little app to gamify osm editions. I was missing the possibility of editing osm in the phone because some editions can be made so mich better on the spot. And making it into a game, great idea! It would be great to have also the possibility for proactive edition. For example, the speed limit challenge. Mark the speed limits on your route while riding as a passenger (this is useful because speeds limits change often). Or add missing POIs. Simple stuff that can be done in the phone.
