When editing #OpenStreetMap on the go, @everydoor is my hands-down favorite, but I’d hesitate recommending it for more new mappers.
I’ve been playing with #OsmGo just now, and really like how easy it is, maybe even for new contributors.
Plus, it’s a progressive web app that runs in a browser, or installable in your device: https://osmgo.com , so this also seems to be a great candidate tool to introduce as a friendly editor for @openstreetmap mapping parties for new users.

Are these available on F-Droid?
@MapAmore @openstreetmap @everydoor
@strypey @MapAmore @openstreetmap @everydoor they are. there is although SCEE (Street complete Extended Edition) that allows for a lot more tags to be edited and some more nifty customization options. Its on F-Droid too.

This sounds powerful. Would you recommend it for a beginner?
@MapAmore @openstreetmap @everydoor
@strypey @MapAmore @openstreetmap @everydoor if you haven’t contributed to osm at all i recommend starting out with street complete get a little feel for what data can be atatched to what kind of nodes.
would recommend https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Beginners%27_guide anyways, no matter what way you want to contribute by.
if you are willing to do a bit of reading in the wiki, i like the editing plugin for OsmAnd, there you can add some other tags that are not implemented in SC (yet) on the road, i addition to SC.
@strypey @MapAmore @openstreetmap @everydoor but everydoor should be able to take this roll too. and its a little bit smoother in the workflow than the OsmAnd plugin. I didnt know about everydoor back when i started and got quite used to the OsmAnd way.

Thanks, I’ll have a look. Having editing it in the map app I already use sounds good.
