Additional Features for Locus Widget
Hi Admins,
Good day!
I just want to request additional features in the locus map pro (medium to large) widget such as the following:
1. Include the current altitude based on the current map being used/Geoid model
2. Include the current coordinates
3. Option to change adding waypoint from default to add waypoint with picture
4. Include statistics of number of sattelites locked over number of sattelites visible (e.g. 9/12) or gps signal strength.
5. Include weather forecast per chosen update interval (e.g. 2 hours, 4 hours, 6 hours, 12 hours)
6. Include emergency/disaster button response which will trigger an sms command, bearing the user-defined message with details (e.g. coordinates, weather forecast, altitude), to selected contact numbers.
I have included screenshots for your reference:
1st screenshot shows 2 (two) widgets such as GPS Widget Pro and Locus Map Pro Widget. Merging the features of these apps to one app will save much battery. https://docs.google.com/file/d/0Byco8xEp6RCZRjJrbGhrUFRvbjA/edit?usp=docslist_api
2nd screenshot shows an accessible widget on lockscreen which is more efficient when you can see the details of your track recording in lockscreen without unlocking your phone. https://docs.google.com/file/d/0Byco8xEp6RCZV21oNHhUWXgxUGc/edit?usp=docslist_api
I'm using Asus Zenfone 5 with GPS and GLONASS.
Hoping that you can integrate these features. Thank you for making this app, the best android gps apps that I have used.
I like this idea

If your idea was only "additional features for Locus widget" - i will vote.
but
there are more then one idea in your description with whom I do not agree.

All the ideas/addtional features I've mentioned above is for the widget only, in order to have an easy accessible (more efficient access) control of the Locus application without unlocking your phone.
There might be an argument "why not activate always screen on?" That display will consume more battery. "Why not set the security of your phone to no pin, password or pattern to access the main locus app?" That will eliminate the opportunity of tracking your phone via antitheft applications, in case of loss.
In summary, what I would like to request is: a widget with emergency button, with weather forecast, with altidude and/or distance information, with picture waypoint shortcut, and with coordinates. Or simply, a widget with features similar to dashboard of the main locus app.
Anyways, it's all up to you developers, I just shared my ideas.
