@grischard Do you know how to set title so app will be blocked?

(I have not tried using app to confirm the problem)

[grischard]

The automatic actions in this repository won't block apps. If someone can find which user agent this app uses, I'll ask OWG to add the block manually.

Thanks both for the support, I'm trying an approach base on the replies here https://stackoverflow.com/questions/20778072/sniffing-an-android-app-to-find-api-url

I finally received a reply!! https://github.com/osmItalia/Segnalazioni-Mancata-attribuzione-OSM/issues/92#issuecomment-1895691988

Yesterday, I sent them a final warning that in 3 days, the tile would be removed, and it worked.

Let's wait if they are really going to fix the app.

No app user agent or updates so I'll close this for now, but feel free to reopen if there are any news.
