Hello,

as someone who contributed to OpenStreetMap I am happy to see this data
being used - also as a default layer in Backcountry navigator app.

But you are supposed to make clear to user what is the data source when you
use OpenStreetMap data.

Please, include a clear info like "© OpenStreetMap (ODbL)" visible on the
corner of the map.

You are using OpenStreetMap data in violation of its license - without a
clearly visible attribution.

Please see https://www.openstreetmap.org/copyright - especially
https://opendatacommons.org/licenses/odbl/1-0/

"You must include a notice associated with the Produced Work reasonably
calculated to make any Person that uses, views, accesses, interacts
with, or is otherwise exposed to the Produced Work aware that Content
was obtained from the Database, Derivative Database, or the Database as
part of a Collective Database, and that it is available under this
License."
