[OSM-talk-be] OsmAnd 2.5.x and destinations

[Marc Gemis]

Hallo,

Since I upgraded to OsmAnd 2.5.x, I noticed that it has better support
for the destination (*) tag. I now get instructions to turn into
"foostreet direction bar town", even on non motorways. I like this, as
the town is typically indicated with signs before the actual junction
and the street name isn't.

So in case you are looking for a nice project, start adding those
destinations from Mapillary pictures.

More information on destinations and tools to verify your work:
