Is there something equivalent for iOS?

StreetComplete has been making steady progress on an iOS port over the past few years.

It would be nice if they made a web app, that would make it work on iOS but also desktop and every other platform with a web browser at the same time

I agree! It seems like their work on the iOS app would bring them a lot closer to web app support as well. In the iOS tracking issue, they say the main changes are moving to Kotlin Multiplatform and Compose Multiplatform, which both support web as a target.

Well, sort of. That'd be very bluesky. What's closer, actually, would be a desktop version, or rather, a version for Linux mobile like postmarketOS (would run like a desktop app in a JVM, but for a mobile target, the layout and UX wouldn't need to be changed.

My guess is no because of the developer linking too below (and how it's always existed this way for iOS)

I wonder why this needs to be an app at all, instead of web based.

It works offline, for one. A lot of datais kept persistently in a SQLite database.
