OM should be visible in the "Share/select application to open" system dialog when sharing links from other maps.

As I understand, the Share Extension should be implemented that can extract coordinates or search queries from URLs, and in Google Maps case, can do (anonymous proxied) requests to Google servers and get decoded location from the response.

https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/documentation/General/Conceptual/ExtensibilityPG/Share.html

An example of a link shared from Apple:

https://maps.apple.com/?address=Poseidonos%20Avenue%2052A,%208042%20Paphos,%20Cyprus&auid=16361832059562202285&ll=34.746884,32.425488&lsp=9902&q=Olympic%20Lagoon%20Resorts%20PAPHOS%20-%20CYPRUS&t=m

The important scenario to support is:

  1. Open GMaps
  2. Select any object to share
  3. Press Share
  4. Select Organic Maps in the list of offered apps
  5. Organic Maps opens, decodes the URL in a privacy-friendly manner (using a proxy server), and shows the shared location from Google Maps #475

URLs shared from other apps may be supported/decoded in the same way.

Now Signal and Go Map!! are displayed as suggestions to open Google Maps urls.
