> if you want to do OSM a favour, point people to the editor on openstreetmap.org, not any of the mobile or "simplified" editing apps.

If you want to make the time to take photos and take notes, and sit down later and enter them on your computer, go for it. Likely that's a faster way to do a larger entry. In particular, I haven't seen a mobile app that does a great job of polygon geometry editing — a mouse really helps.

But I don't think it's a problem to do simple POI entry or attribute updates from a simpler mobile app like "Go Mapp!!". I think like many things, the best mapping tool is "the one that you have with you".

Am I missing something?

To add to this, not everyone needs to pursue the same kind of work. As a more experienced mapper I make a point of allocating my time toward what I think of as “scaffolding” tasks that enable others’ mobile contributions—geometry, wide area edits, alignment, navigational references, model clarification, or anything that might trigger new quests in StreetComplete or declutter formidable ones. It’s gratifying to have exposed new opportunities for mobile contributions and see the questers begin filling them in.
