So, as I said previously, after one year of development, the WikiJourney app, made in order to promote free tourism, is out! Okay, it's still a little bit buggy, but that's why we need it tested over different devices...

Try it if you want, and if you have any comment (negative or positive), tell me or write it in the play store!
(it's also available in aptoide/f-droid...)

Oh, hi John! Yes, we met at the hackathon, and we even improved the website we showed you there: we even display wikivoyage guides around you! (https://www.wikijourney.eu/). (Well, hopefully, because nine months without any update would have been kind of sad haha)
We'll need android beta-testers soon, and maybe some guidance on special:gather, because we just suceeded in integrating OAuth (which is quite a success, because OAuth implementation was a nightmare...). Overall, we mainly used wikidata query editor, which was really easy to use. What we needed was 1) get points of interests around a specific location (which the « around » call helped a lot), 2) Get tourism-related wikidata/wikipedia infos of those POI's, which is quite simple. We even made a little wrapper/api to get directly these informations: https://github.com/WikiJourney/wikijourney_website/wiki/API-:-How-does-it-wo...
However, as I said, we may need some help integrating collections, but we'll post questions on appropriate sections :)
Thanks for your answers - the app should be in beta in the play store tomorrow.

I'm not an app developer but if you need a beta tester or any specific guidance on how you are using the API please let me know. It would also be great to hear from you what pain points you ran into whilst building this - specifically it would be good to understand we can improve in MediaWiki's API to better support what you are trying to do.

For now, it can locate an android user on a map, display points of interests extracted from wikidata and show the user the associated wikipedia articles. The application will shortly be able to create touristic « tours », but currently, we need some feedback from people, and not just user-related feedback... We feel our code (https://github.com/WikiJourney/wikijourney_app/) is a bit messy, but don't know if there's a precise « coding convention » here at Wikimedia. What do you think of it?
