About StreetComplete
StreetComplete finds missing map data in your vicinity and shows it on a map as quests. You go to the place, answer a simple question such as what surface a road has, and the answer is added to OpenStreetMap in your name without needing a separate editor.
It suits people who want to contribute to OpenStreetMap while out walking without learning tagging. The app is available from Google Play, F-Droid and GitHub releases, and is translated into many languages.
