We're really getting substantially off topic now. Apps on android in general don't have specific other apps hardwired to perform tasks that they themselves don't handle. They will use a so called "intent" to indicate that they want to do something, for example display a location on a map, see https://developer.android.com/guide/components/intents-common.html#Maps the Android system will them either provide the user a selection of the apps that have indicated that they can perform the requested action, or, if the user has indicated the preferred app for a task, use that. The latter can naturally be changed by the user. Both OSMand and Vespucci support geo URIs on android. https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/android/intents lists all the intents that google maps support. I have to say that I haven't tested if all of these can be changed in the above fashion, it is obvious from the documentation that google has made that a bit harder. It would be interesting to see if you could convince android to at least offer the option of starting Mapillary instead of Streetview. Simon
