Android intent for moving map to lat/lon

Tapio shared this idea ago

Completed

Hi Menion, I was surprised there is none... I think an intent which makes the map move to a lat,lon position would be great. So we can have Locus start at a specific geo position.

thx

Hello Tapio

generic "geo" intent does not work for you?

thx Will check. I guess this would trigger the ever appearing "open with" dialog... But I'd lovevto specifically call Locus.

How you use these "intents"? It is usually possible to specify target of this intent. So it should be possible to specify Locus Map Pro with it's unique ID: "menion.android.locus.pro".

Thanks, I try to use "send intent" from Tasker. Yeah, Locus package name goes to the "Package" field there. I already use Locus action tasks (where we use rhe Action and Extra field), but now I'm currently not knowing how to send the geo location to Locus.
