Hello,
About live location. When enabling it, I see that my live location is being displayed on a map, together with the route/trace that I have been taking during the time I enabled live location. Which is actually great.
Now. I see that the route/trace is being displayed in the map for only around 24 hours after the live location got deactivated, i.e., the intended duration finished. I assume this is the way it was built (maybe there are specific reasons for it?). Meaning, after 24 hours, the map is completely empty again.
Question. Would it be possible to extend the depiction of that route/trace on the map for a little longer, like maybe a week?
Kind regards.
in the past implementation there was the functionality of viewing all history.
I don’t know how easy it is to add to the current implementation. Here is the source code if anyone wants to try to add it GitHub - deltachat/maps.
There is a trick where you can test your custom map version without fully self compiling deltachat: build the map app and then send it to your saved messages chat as attachment.
But keep in mind all this is currently experimental and could change in one or two years.
yeah, a “settings” button, where one can change things like that - and maybe also export/import tracks - would be great
