What the Community Says
Users are loving StreetComplete for its simplicity and open-source nature. As one user said:
I discovered that recently, it’s a very fun way to contribute to OpenStreetMap, and the UI is really well-done, it’s totally beginner friendly!
Another user praised the app’s potential:
I really love this – fantastic that it’s open source too as would love to contribute. Is there an opportunity to add fresh new sites on this?
Some users are even using StreetComplete to map their neighborhoods:
Great app. There is also https://every-door.app/ that gives you slightly different set of tasks and allows you to place POI easily. I recently mapped a lot of trash cans and benches around my neighborhood while walking with my dog.
Room for Improvement
One user suggested adding pictures to OpenStreetMap:
One thing missing on osm is pictures. Would defeats Google maps if it had some, where users would feedback and bad shots would get wiped to save space. We would get the best shots the world has to offer.
