Mapping with a Smartphone, GPS or Paper
=============================

More and more smartphones today include a radio chip that allows them to
receive signals from satellite navigation systems and determine their
location. The most common chips receive signals from the U.S. GPS
frequencies, while higher end models may include chips that can read
frequencies from the Russian GLONASS satellites at the same time.

The quality of the chips used in smartphones may vary, and data accuracy
and performance could vary as well.

Devices with GPS chips can work autonomously, off the grid, and without
an Internet connection, while devices marked with “A-GPS only” (Assisted
GPS) require a network data connection (and a mobile signal from a
telecommunications company) to work correctly. A-GPS data can help
autonomous GPS chips perform better by pre-caching data for better
performance.

For most mapping applications to work as expected, the user is assumed
to have a smartphone with an autonomous GPS chip. Check your device
specifications to confirm whether your device uses an autonomous chip,
or is A-GPS only device.

There are a lot of mapping applications available (for free or paid) for
most smartphones in the market. Each app has its own advantages and
disadvantages.

In choosing a mapping application for mapping in OpenStreetMap, you need
to consider the following features.

- Easy to learn; immediately usable
- With GPX support (create waypoints, customizable log intervals)
- Allows OSM contribution (add, edit, upload data)
- Able to load OSM data offline
- Able to geo-tag multimedia files (notes, photos, videos)
- In active development

Try several applications that are compatible with your phone to get
familiar with the interface and choose the best app based on your
personal preference and mapping approach.

The next sections will guide you through the installation and use of specific applications
for you to contribute to OpenStreetMap using your smartphones.

> **Note:** Before proceeding any further, verify that GPS is available and
> active for the device. In Android, go to **Settings \> Location** and enable it.
> Remember, GPS doesn’t work inside buildings!
