JOSM on the Microsoft Store

[bradley.watson.iv@…]

Hello,
Please make JOSM available on the XBOX.
This will make it very easy and open to more mappers to use on XBOX.
XBOX is not just a gaming console, it's also a media device in the living room that work wonderfully with mouse and keyboard just like Windows PC.
Currently the only way to edit OSM in XBOX is through the Edge browser (chromium based) on our XBOXs, having JOSM would make it lot easier to work with since our XBOXs have so much power and performance more than our computers.
It's just a check box you click check on to make it available when you update the JOSM UWP on the Microsoft store.
Currently I can install the windows store version on my XBOX by downloading the UWP file (appx) file from the store and install it through the XBOX Dev mode and it will work but no one would go into that hassle and pay $20 for the dev account just to install josm and use it in xbox.
So please, make just click and make it available on XBOX too, I can test if if you want.
Best Regards.

Hi, I found this on the Microsoft website:
​https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/apps/publish/publish-your-app/create-platform-specific-store-listings

There is also an outdated page that talk about xbox support, but I would not recommend following it because the first thing it recommend to do is to disable mouse control for xbox but that would make JOSM hard with only controller support and basically unusable. The article mention the previous gen the xbox one and not updated to the new gen the xbox series, although this won't matter.
