I've done a bit more #OpenStreetMap stuff this week and been bitten again by an issue I have with #StreetComplete : I don't always know when something is already on the map without a change to #OSMAnd .
This means (like today) I double add items or add a note saying 'Thing here' only to discover an hour later its actually already there.

Don't know what the solution is - perhaps an option for Street Complete to show all items in an area, not just its filtered views? Whatever it is, this keeps biting me.

@kgoetz Hm, generally if an overlay allows you to add a certain type of POI, it should also be showing existing POIs of that type. Are you having this problem with some particular POI type? Maybe it's an oversight, a bug to be reported to SC devs.

@ticho sometimes I don't know which overlay something will be in.
yesterday's issue was a stream train in a playground (to play on), with an information plaque. It's in osm as "attraction" (no idea which overlay that is found in) while I was trying to add it as play equipment.

@kgoetz Fair enough, it did not occur to me that some things could be ambiguous like this. :/
