Hi John,
The map view takes a couple of tries sometimes. Some bugs are still present.
We do intend to develop general upload functionality in the mobile site and apps, and this app is a first step in that direction.
Tomasz responded earlier about the source:

It hangs when talking to the satellites here in Oz. Probably because OZ isnt part of WLM?.. :(
It would be good to have a generic Commons uploader app, with WLM app built as a front-end on top.
Is the source available? On Aug 2, 2012 3:19 PM, "Philip Chang" pchang@wikimedia.org wrote:
