I use OsmAnd on my travels and always find stuff to map or update. This app makes it easy (once you learn the app and reference the OSM wiki). Never need to use the website editor or a mouse.

Currently it crashes every time I want to download map data. UPDATE: It's better now.

Vespucci is a **feature-full** , and probably most **powerful** OpenStreetMap editing tool for mobiles devices. This maybe more difficult to use on smaller screens, but works great on larger ones and tablets. It's even usable this during mapathons with a tablet and a bluetooth mouse. This tool is designed to work with OpenStreetMap, and other data sources that are open compatible to ODbL. Don't expect this tool to work with proprietary sources. You can edit nodes, ways, and relations. You can also use it for some micro-tasking managers, and Quality Assurance tools. It includes features like presets to make editing more convenient. The project is actively developed, and the developers are responsive to issues. Definitely a tool you'd want to include in your mobile editing tool set.

As much as you can get on a smartphone. Great for collecting POIs and editing attributes of existing objects. Editing geometry is something I prefer to use JOSM for back at home anyway. Unlike some other commenters I don't have issues with performance and that on a very low-end device.

Took a day or so to fully figure out how to use it - it's clunky at first. But after getting used to clicking extra buttons to get to properties, and hitting a button at the bottom to upload a changeset, it's actually pretty great - comparable with the id editor online.

Compared to a desktop with JOSM it's fantastic how full-featured an OSM editor this is on relatively low-spec Android devices. Naturally a few things are cumbersome to do with only a touchscreen but some features such as the POI templates and address autocompletion are actually more pleasant to use than on JOSM. Great work!

About this app

Vespucci is an advanced open source tool for editing OpenStreetMap data, it is not a map viewer or a navigation app. You will need an OpenStreetMap account to use it .

You can download the map data for a specific area and edit the map. After editing, you can upload it directly to the OSM servers.

Any accidental change can be undone and all changes are listed for review before upload. Tag-autocompletion, JOSM compatible presets, links to the translated map-features pages and even auto-completing nearby street names help to find the right tags to use.

We recommend disabling auto-updates for Vespucci so that you can upload your edits before app updates.

More information and documentation can be found on vespucci.io and in the on-device help.

Please do not report problems here or ask for support, see why we can't provide support and accept issues on the play store review section. You can report issues directly from the app without a github account or go directly to the issue tracker.

New features
