Every Door – OpenStreetMap editor for POIs and entrances

This is a great app. Reminds of Street Complete. I found Street complete to be a bit annoying to use with asking so many questions. This is much simpler and gives better control.

Someone should make an OS map editor/view which basically looks just like Google maps but uses open street maps under the hood. That will probably make it seemless to switch to open street maps.

Note that in Street Complete you can go into the settings and turn off some of the things it asks about (E.g. I turned off street material very quickly).

But street complete gamifies the data entry... steet materials give you a bunch of points for basically zero work.. .just walk to work, and "left... asphalt... right? asphalt.. left? asphalt... right? Paving stones.. left? asphalt..."

A lot less work than editing opening times for restaurants, cointing the floors on high rises, the stairs and bike racks.

This is the beauty of OSM! Editors can prioritize what type of data they want to help improve. Some people are focused on wheelchair accessibility data, others on landuse, etc.

I think https://organicmaps.app (a tracker-less fork of super-popular Maps.Me) is what you have in mind :)
