I’d encourage use of StreetComplete, you can walk around your local area and get lots of points to survey with data on street widths or businesses’ opening times. Imagine if all the people who were busy with Pokemon Go used that, OpenStreetMap would be nigh perfect in terms of data.
Amusingly, it’s widely believed that improving location information is a big part of the reason Niantic (at the time a subsidiary of Google) created Ingress (their game before Pokemon Go—and a much better-designed game, IMO) in the first place.

Yes!! I love that app!
Are there any iOS equivalents to StreetComplete?
there is Every Door on iOS, as well as MapComplete and MapContrib which are websites so they should work on iOS
idk if any of these are as good as StreetComplete tho
If you have a dashcam, you can also upload streetview footage with KartaView too.
