Okay, I am tavelling currently so I felt the need of point I have raised. I will try to use as explained in above message, Do I need to do anything extra to use that means like compilation or packaging etc. or it is available for direct use. > > Almost all the applications available in the android market are cheap but > > not all the users personally me would like to pay for using it because its > > data is already being provided by osm free of cost. > > Then we think differently :) > I think that donations to free/opensource developers are a good way to support > them (i.e. free software shouldn't necessarily be "free as in beer") I am completely agree with your point but the thing is about osm's own application. I wish more and more users to use osm. There are lot of other methods to get paid from applications like adds and support . Because Google has never asked me to use all of its features and that is also without any kind of adds. One more thing about all third party applications is that their tile rendering is blocked at higher zoom levels that's why i want osm's own application without using any third party.
