ProgressiveWebApps to bypass AppStore's tyrany
Currently Mozilla Firefox based browser don't properly supports PWA.
You better use a chromium based browser such as Brave
Many PWAs will automatically prompt an install button when you visit the app in the web browser. If not, tap the button next to the address field and select "Add to Home screen", "Install app" or "Install" in the list of options that appears.
On iOS and iPadOS you will need to use Safari to add them to your HomeScreen.
For installing them, tap the button "share" in the browser. Scroll right among the options that appear and select "Add to Home Screen".












Comments and Reviews
It does directions as well, and makes it very clear the data comes from OSM, by providing links to the underlying data and the editor.
I like Qwant Maps because it displays names on foreign countries in my local language. OSM uses local language only for home country. Foreighn countries are labeled by their respective foreign languages.
It shows the real flat Earth as it should.
Not really that finished during writing, but he already gets the job done, in a nicer way of OpenStreetMap which is based on.
