Lacking proper attribution/alltrails

missing proper attribution in your app for OpenStreetMap data

Hello,

As an OpenStreetMap contributor, I am pleased to see that you are using OpenStreetMap on your app:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.alltrails.alltrails

However, I noticed that the map seems to lack the proper credit. OpenStreetMap's license requires that you both credit OpenStreetMap and make users aware of the data license (by linking to our copyright page). For more information, see:

https://www.openstreetmap.org/copyright

Note that it is mandatory that attribution is clearly displayed. You hide it behind barely visible i symbol that must be clicked to display it, what is not sufficient.

More importantly attribution helps us spread the word about OpenStreetMap and attract new contributors and build the community. This is incredibly important to improving the quality of the database that you and millions of others rely on.

Acknowledgement of receipt would be appreciated.

Thanks, Mateusz Konieczny
