I used to add photos to Google Maps. As I grew up, I feel that I dont want to support us corporation.

Which alternative is the most popular in your country? In Poland I use mapy.com, and I add ratings, photos of the places. Is there any better platform? What do you use in France, Germany, Italy etc?

    It’s a bit hidden: press the layer button, then “Places”. You should see a red button with a cross at the bottom of your screen, you can use it to add a business. Same thing to add benches, trash bins, bike locks, etc: use the “Objects” layer.

    You can also use the layer button to fill details about street lighting, parking spaces, etc.

      You can also filter what quests are show, if it seems a bit overwhelming or you don’t want to contribute to road surfaces, roof shapes, etc.

      Burger menu > Settings > Quest selection and display order

      Oh, wow. Thanks!

      I only ever did the surveys and did all other edits using osmand (or just saved some point/tracks to a gpx and edited from my PC). That’s so much easier at a first glance!
