Every Door has a very confusing UI (lots of unlabeled buttons with unclear icons), unfortunately. I would love to use it, but even the web-based iD editor is so much easier to figure out!

The Street Complete UI is just perfect for mobile. If I'm walking down the street with a phone, I don't want to edit polygons or accidentally move a road. I just want to fill in missing data on existing mapped points.

I agree and I've been thinking about making something similar to Every Door but that takes advantage of AI to let you snap a photo or just send a voice note and then have the appropriate tags generated for review based on some very strict schemas. Would something like that be of interest to you?

Also open to feedback from anyone.

I was thinking it would be ideal to have something that lets you walk down a street holding your phone out, capture a series of images and then process that in to changes you approve manually at home. Could even be processed locally on a computer after the fact.

Being able to process it later on the computer would definitely be great! That's kinda what I already do via notes but it's fairly painful to match up the photos I took to the notes and times.

I'll certainly keep this in mind though.

Sounds like hosted AI inference would be involved! Who's paying?

Me!
