Touch-first collaborative mapping app for creating, discussing, and sharing geographic datasets over Nostr.
Earthly is a touch-first collaborative mapping app for creating, discussing, and sharing geographic datasets over Nostr.
Draw points, lines, and polygons; publish GeoJSON maps and map-backed Stories; annotate maps with geographic comments; and work in MLS-encrypted Private groups. AI chat can help edit multiple drafts using explicit editable and read-only references. You choose what to publish. Android Field sessions add explicit nearby-only collaboration over a shared Wi-Fi network or hotspot, including chat, map editing, and one-time mirroring of referenced map files for offline use.
Earthly includes its own local relay and Blossom service. Core nearby and offline workflows do not require a separate companion relay app.

Latest release
Uses the camera to capture media and location to map geographic data. The app communicates with Nostr relays and AI services, sending map data and chat prompts off-device.

Release notes
- Upgrade Applesauce to v7 with account-specific relay authentication, automatic subscription recovery, and relay health, cooldown, and retry controls.
- Show shared reaction and comment counts for visible rows without downloading every reaction. Distinguish unavailable counts from zero and preserve totals across map revisions. Calculate zap totals from actual receipt amounts.
- Require completed wallet synchronization before spending, preserve recovery and consumed-token safeguards, and bound wallet capability discovery.
- Use upstream large-message and restored-session remote signing support, and improve comment threading when parents arrive late or are deleted.
- Fix validation debt: isolate unit-test files, align stale UI/routing/editor assertions, reject invalid geometry at rendering boundaries, and prevent uninterruptible schema regex validation when no worker is available.
Validation
- All 418 unit-test files pass through the isolated test gate; the AI-suite typecheck passes and the application typecheck reports no new diagnostics.
- Desktop/mobile browser checks and Android emulator navigation, foreground resume, and process restart passed.
Known limitations
- Physical-device performance and live mint/NWC payments remain untested.
- Android instrumentation dependency downloads returned HTTP 404; equivalent navigation and lifecycle smoke checks used ADB and UI Automator.
