Everything #OpenStreetMap related is welcome: software releases, showing of your work, questions about how to tag something, as long as it has to do with OpenStreetMap or OpenStreetMap-related software.

OpenStreetMap is a map of the world, created by people like you and free to use under an open license.

Join OpenStreetMap and start mapping: https://www.openstreetmap.org/.

There are many communication channels about OSM, many organized around a certain country or region. Discover them on https://openstreetmap.community/

https://mapcomplete.org/ is an easy-to-use website to view, edit and add points (such as shops, restaurants and others)

https://learnosm.org/en/ has a lot of information for beginners too.

I am currently collecting tips for easy entry into mapping. One of the top recommendations is of course StreetComplete, which is available for Android.

iOS users keep asking for something comparable for their OS. For an equally simple start with OSM, there is Every Door, which is also available for iOS. It's a very good app, but it really doesn't have the fun factor of StreetComplete and the UI is likely to scare off iOS users in particular.

There is also MapComplete, which can be used as a web app.

Do you have any other recommendations or ideas for iOS-Users?

There is also Go, Map! which introduced some comparable features within the last few versions. But it's also far away from the comfort and user friendlyness of StreetComplete.
