Main reason is because Mapzen POI Collector needs a network connection to upload the POIs to OSM. There is no support for offline / caching. I guess if you had a wifi network you could upload the POIs that way, but there aren't many places with ubiquitous WiFi. If you email me at [email protected] I'll see if we can get a build made for iPod touch and you can test it out. > > Regards, > Claudius > > > _______________________________________________ > Talk-de mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-de > -- -- Nick Black twitter.com/nick_b _______________________________________________ Talk-de mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-de
