This is great (for iPhone users)!
Now its time to do the same application for Android devices. I’m expecting people doing mapping to be more technical and use Android devices more than iPhones.

Thanks, this app is great! OSM needs more Points of Interest and this app will help.

Great news – but what about an Android version?
Also, is there any prospect of having a Cloudmade version of an Android developer library, with perhaps less stringent terms than the Nutiteq one? Publishing under the GPL I don’t think encourages developers to come to the Cloudmade platform for mapping services on Android.

Very impressed with Mapzen POI on the iPhone. Great for those times ‘in the street’ when you see a POI that should be on the map. Only small complaint is that initially it doesn’t zoom in far enough to drop a POI and tag it, I have to spend quite a while scrolling and zooming in. Not a major gripe, and just want reiterate that I reckon this this is a fantastic piece of work

Hi Chas – glad you like it. I agree that the zoom doesn’t go far enough. We’re investigating adding another zoom level to future versions – probably around spring time.
