I've been editing in JOSM for years and just started editing with Maps.me, and the fact that it's very fast and easy to make the edit is the main reason I have. If I walk past a shop, it's very easy to add it straight through the app, vs making a note and then spending time back home converting that note into mapping in JOSM. The down side of course is that the Maps.me data isn't updated very frequently so I might be duplicating data which has been added after Maps.me last generated the data extracts, or potentially already in OSM but Maps.me wasn't rendering it (so I thought it didn't exist). I think this is something Maps.me should address that if it finds a similar tag nearby which was created at a time after your local offline data and if so let you know about it before uploading. It's also frustrating that I can't add key=value tags, as an expert user this would be a handy option. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
