Mapzen POI collector is available for android. There is currently a
problem with authorizing it through oauth though. Seems it might
actually be a bug in a Ruby library. Important people are aware:

OsmAnd can also do simple POI adding/editing. In addition to
classifying the place (amenity=* or whatever) it only supports the
name and opening_hours tags.

I also just saw a request for a feature in Vespucci that might make it
usable for this kind of thing. Someone was requesting they create a
custom intent that would allow other apps to open up Vespucci and
pre-load a given area from the API. Still a pretty hard to use
interface for people who don't live and breathe the OSM data model
though. The feature request can be found here:
