@soloojos
This seems like it'd be the opposite of an @openstreetmap thing.

Yes, what we need is the other way arrround! Convert Google Maps Links to OpenStreetMap.org without having to have the Google Maps App.

Nevertheless great that geo-urls are created. This is super helpfull since its supported by OsmAnd, OrganicMaps and much more.

Additionally it would be helpfull if this App registers itself to receive openstreetmap.org and osm.org URLs, so you can just share a link with it instead of copy&paste

PS: the App from F-Droid produces wrong URLs for me like https://openstreetmap/?mlat=0.0&mlon=0.0 ( i provided https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=5/52.270/11.602)

No, it would allow you to use open street maps, but still share a link to friends that don’t.

According to the readme it also works the other way around, making this a great addition to your OSM app of choice.

Edit: ~~it doesn't seem to work quite right yet in version 0.3.4 on F-Droid~~

Edit 2: Google Maps -> OSM works now :D

I could see this coming in handy if you're sharing links to places and send them to less privacy oriented friends, so you don't have to hear the "Ugh why can't you just use Google Maps?" again.

You can try to send geo URI instead. Most messangers support them.

Example: geo:52.51632,13.37731?z=19
