Is there a way to add elements to the map, such as a missing store, a one-way road, a construction work blocking the street...? Basically, to create new bubbles

Is there a way to add elements to the map, such as a missing store, a one-way road, a construction work blocking the street...? Basically, to create new bubbles from a limited subset; or to classify notes by (a limited subset of) its possible type of street elements.
This would make this app a perfect entry-level editor to contribute on poorly mapped areas. Other editor apps are too complex for that, but this one feels somewhat limited without a possibility to add freeform content, not just following exisitng prompts.
- donalhunt 5y agoOSM Contributor (android) is quite good for the set of POIs it supports. I believe Go map! is the go-to on iOS. There are also imagery capture apps (Mapillary, Kartaview, etc) which allow you capture a lot of data on the ground and then process it later (either yourself or by utilising other members of the community).
- edwcross 5y agoOSM Go! (Android app) allows adding point-based POIs, so mostly stores (if you point to the entrance) and fixtures, not so much path-based things (e.g. crosswalks, which are bound to a path). But it's quite easy in my opinion, and offers several templates. It's open source (on GitHub) even though not on F-Droid, so you have to use Google Play to install it.

- morsch 5y agoYou can't do those things with StreetComplete, but you can add notes which other editors can -- and in my own experience, will -- address.
