StreetComplete makes contributing to OpenStreetMap easy and fun by turning contributions into “quests” on a map for you to complete. No personal information is required, just create an OpenStreetMap account, and start contributing directly in your area!

I tried this out myself, and it is truly fantastic! I had never heard of it, and I’m sure many of you haven’t either, so spread the word!

Tip: When entering buildings to ask questions (opening hours, etc.) be ready to explain what OpenStreetMap is :)

    I started to use it, IT’S AMAZING! HOLY… Something to do while walking is to observe and ask around, which I want to do, without having no reason to do y’know.

    When I get asked why, I just say I’m just confirming what Google Maps said to me (which tbf can be outdated) so I get updated!

    I like it, especially in my city and region where I haven’t heard of major OSM users or editors…

    Thank you so much for recommending this!
