POI Alert in Notification Bar

Lukas Had shared this idea 10 years ago
Completed

This is a shorter version of my post from CZ discussion on Locus forum(http://forum.locusmap.eu/viewtopic.ph...).


Would it be possible to send any POI Alert to the Notification Bar? Not only the info that POI Alert was Enabled/Disabled how it is now, but the whole info about POI? Like POI name and distance to it? With some refresh after few seconds,maybe? The best would be the same way how it is with Track Recording. I know this feature isn`t for everybody, so it could be optional(you can eneble/disable it in menu).


It would be useful for people with Pebble watch and similiar devices.


Thank you.

Come on, people...nobody is interested in this feature?? 85 000 people have the first batch of Pebble watch from Kickstarter, thousands will follow shortly once they are on the market...nobody of them is using Locus for geocaching?

in next version will be notification slightly improved. If there will be only a one point in range, in notification bar will be it`s name and distance. Refresh of these information is set to once per 2 seconds. We`ll see how it will work ...

or dashboard boxes for 1..n closest POIs, n <= 10
