import OSM (shared location from Maps.me) to iOS Apple Maps

I prefer to use Maps.me. But my associates use Apple Maps. Is there any way to share a location from Maps.me to an iPhone user and have it open in Apple Maps. I have tried this but the link sent is http://ge0.me/... This seems to be unrecognizable on the iPhone.

Any help.

To be fair, your question didn't ask that - it asked about "Maps.me", which is a third-party application whose only connection to OSM is that (like some Apple products, actually) they use OSM data.

To share a location from OpenStreetMap:

In a web browser go to openstreetmap.org
Move around the map until the location that you want to share is displayed
Copy the contents of the URL bar
Create a new email
Paste into that email
Send email

permanent link

For comparison, a "share" of a location from within Apple Maps is actually very similar, except containing information that is presumably designed to track who is doing the sharing:
