Dear all, I'd like to commend Tobias for his work on StreetComplete. I was delighted when I first found it, because it's straight forward to use, and let's people who aren't experienced mappers contribute data to OSM (which is surely in our interest) in a very structured way (which is surely also in our interest).
The play store says "StreetComplete (Unreleased) / This is an unreleased app. It may be unstable.", so clearly the app isn't as complete as the developer would like. I'm happy to help out if I can do so in some way. Tobias - well done!
