That's great news! I'm not really one for gamification, but the interface on Android looks really nice, and removing the need to have interface knowledge of OSM KVPs for things like roof shape, track smoothness, etc is a big bonus.
I tried all the Android OSM editors I could find and Street Complete really is a pleasure to use, the others (which are perfectly good in their own right) seem so clunky and old-fashioned in comparison!
Yeah, that's the case for Go Map on iOS too. It's improved significantly over time, and it's quite powerful, but the interface is still finicky and not always in line with the platform's design language, and it's not super helpful in guiding the user to the most common tags. Props to the developer though!
