While it is true that editing is never completely simple, a fair share of this is due to the complexity involved. There are some people that can't read a map, just because they have a smartphone now does not mean they can draw one. I think a good way to make it simple is to reduce the scope. A dedicated app for (e.g.) petrol stations can ask the right questions and offer only those tags that are relevant. The more versatile the app gets, the more you will have to look for the gas station in the presets, and the more steps you'll have to go through. Also every tag should be explained during insertion, e.g. that descriptions shouldn't go into name... cheers, Martin _______________________________________________ dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
