    Thanks.

    I’ve never seen a kayak link. I can’t find an example or anything in the settings. Weird.

    Is TetheredNet for the same reason or because the app depends on OSM data? Would that apply to every OSM based app?

      Kayak example: https://omaps.app/w4CNuytXo0/Hôtel_des_Marronniers a random hotel in Paris. The big K icon labeled “photos, reviews, booking” or something like that.

      As for TetheredNet, it’s for a different reason. It’s not that it’s tethered to OSM, it’s that it’s tethered to Organic Maps’s servers serving pre-processed maps. (Organic Maps can’t fetch data from OSM directly)

        Ahh. That helps to clarify, and it makes sense. Organic Maps is always a few days behind on updates, and only pushes them out periodically.
