Is there something equivalent for iOS?

StreetComplete has been making steady progress on an iOS port over the past few years.

It would be nice if they made a web app, that would make it work on iOS but also desktop and every other platform with a web browser at the same time

I agree! It seems like their work on the iOS app would bring them a lot closer to web app support as well. In the iOS tracking issue, they say the main changes are moving to Kotlin Multiplatform and Compose Multiplatform, which both support web as a target.

Well, sort of. That'd be very bluesky. What's closer, actually, would be a desktop version, or rather, a version for Linux mobile like postmarketOS (would run like a desktop app in a JVM, but for a mobile target, the layout and UX wouldn't need to be changed.

I'll take a look and see if I can help out. Thx.

My guess is no because of the developer linking too below (and how it's always existed this way for iOS)

I wonder why this needs to be an app at all, instead of web based.

It works offline, for one. A lot of datais kept persistently in a SQLite database.

More like scph1002.bin in this case. 1001 is for SCEA.

Every day I take a 2 hour walk and contribute as much data as I can to OSM using this app.

This is such a great idea. Are there ever any plans for a web app?

I enjoyed the simulated phone screenshots, particularly the choice of House of the Trembling Madness, a great beer stockist and drinking establishment on Lendal in York. I would like to think that the name in the input field is deliberately slightly wrong, ready to be fixed by someone. (It's "House of the Trembling Madness" rather than "The House of Trembling Madness".) Gamification at another level :-)

Just through your comment I found out that they have different screenshots for all their localization settings. Cool!
