Creating (adding) POIs (programming.dev)
submitted 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) by promitheas@programming.dev to c/osmand@lemmy.ml
 

I would like to contribute to the maps for my area by creating and uploading various POIs as I come across them in my daily use. To get familiar with the system I decided to add a known to me florist. I found the exact location using google maps, opened it in OsmAnd+, and went through the process to add all its details (address, phone, website, type, etc). However when I decide to upload it, signing in with username and password, I get the error in the image attached. Anyone know what the problem is and how I can solve it?

Edit: App Info OsmAnd+ 4.6.12, Released: 2024-01-16

Starting back in May, OpenStreetMap went through a transition to require OAuth 2.0 for authentication. Some software didn't get updated until close to the deadline. In particular, OsmAnd was updated around February with release later. Your January version lacked this required update.

Well it seems then that the fdroid repo is outdated, or at least in Droidify which I use for fdroid repos. Hopefully it catches up soon.

Thanks for the clarification
