Map Marker Roadmap
Note: this is my mindset at the moment, not a promise. I use the prefix "iOS/Web feature gap" for features already in the
Android app but not implemented in the iOS app and the web app
Currently working on...
iOS/Web translations
A long term solution for the in-app places search. There are already budget problems with the web app despite its low usage, and starting end of July, Google Places search won't be free for mobile apps anymore. Based on my current user base, it would cost me thousands of dollars per month, and since I intend to keep that feature free, I won't be able to pay for it. Therefore I'm working on an alternative search source to keep it free for all users.
Once I'm done with what I'm working on...
Higher priority
- iOS/Web feature gap: custom colors
- iOS/Web feature gap: restore from history
- iOS/Web feature gap: more import/export formats
Other good ideas
- tags for markers with search by tag
- all the other missing features from the iOS and Web version
- better offline maps
- quick picture mode (setting to open directly camera, or gallery, or camera internally)
- pictures annotations (shapes, arrow, text, etc.)
- print marker to PDF, with map, snapshot, title, description, etc.
- snackbar for cancelling marker deletion
- new marker title/description pre-fill parameters: address, date, time, number, folder name, arbitrary string
- "suggested locations" feature
- unfoldable folders in the left panel allowing a quick navigation to markers
- have the possibility to hide folders from the tree, accessible from a "hidden folders" sub-list
- color auto assign for new created folders
- make the system bar and the navigation bar transparent so that we can see the map through it
- voice notes
- left handed mode (showing the action buttons at the left)
- have different sort options (once more fields are added to markers: title, description, creation date, any other date,
distance to current location, distance to specific marker, etc.)
- more actions based on multiple markers selection (send phone, send email, etc.)
- SMS mass sending with number in selected markers
- Search filter to filter displayed markers on the map
- Export all images of a marker
- Read out marker info (voice synth) on marker select
- Smart alphabetical sorting taking numbers into account
- Route planning: starting navigation with multiple markers
- Bluetooth sharing with Garmin or TomTom GPS devices
- Widget to mark current location
- Alarm when nearing a POI
- Make map snapshots larger than the screen
- Auto address filling in marker creation
- Mass street address import from CSV
- Mass postal code import from CSV
- Altitude lookup for markers
- Temperature lookup for markers
- GPX import/export
- UTM import/export
- Pinning folders: arbitrary ordering
- Folders auto collapsing with setting
- Renaming search result before adding to the map
- Smarter camera re-positioning when switching map file
- When guiding to a marker, draw a straight line to destination
- Share action to have the list of folders with checkboxes instead of one menu item per folder
- Start navigation between 2 points, not from current location
- Add a calendar reminder for a marker, with Google calendar integration
