By the total number of edits made, CoMaps was the 15th most used OpenStreetMap editor in June.
At first glance, that might not sound like a lot, but: With that, we are the #1 OSM editor that is not mainly an editor but a fully fledged map & navigation app and also editor!
From the start we have said that we want CoMaps to be a good citizen of the larger OSM ecosystem and make sure that we and our users contribute back. And it looks like you're all making good on that!
New maps are available - with #OpenStreetMap data from July 8.
