Live location S+ app

@GiPFELKiND I cannot add a emergency contact in the app… the same problem you posted with your screenshot… I‘m wondering what will happen when I press the emergency button in the watch app?
-
@SuperFlo75 you will call me

@GiPFELKiND Nice! I love this feature 🤩
-
I use this feature sometimes since its launch.
Very nice that it uses watch GPS, it saves the phone one and battery of the phone on this regard. But, at least to me (Samsung S20) the app on the phone is depleting the battery way too much
.
Which is not usable for any real “emergency” tracking.
It will surely come, but the combo phone app/watch, should be custimizable to only send data every xx seconds / minutes (if it is the only main battery consumption).
But @Nikolai-Simonov, well done

for real emergency you need a device that doesn’t rely on the mobile network, like a Garmin InReach that uses the Iridium satellite constellation, it is able to connect from everywhere in the world, in the middle of an ocean, the Sahara or even the Antarctica

Hi everyone!
It’s been a while since my last post, so I wanted to share what I’m currently working on.Along side to supporting gpx routes, I’ve been testing a concept I’ve temporarily called checkpoints.
Basically, it’s a geofence + trigger.Right now, I have two types of triggers implemented:
- Geofence entry trigger - fires when you cross into a predefined zone.
- ETA trigger - monitors if you reach the zone by a scheduled time, and if not, it can send a signal that you didn’t make it to the checkpoint on time.
At this time.
You can set checkpoints directly on the map (TestFlight users may have already seen this feature in ui).Geofence entry trigger is working.
Currently testing via local notifications.
There is a short demo video showing how it might look in the future.https://drive.proton.me/urls/FNGGZ7JB6W#ppO6CKjQTAdf
So if you have any additional ideas please don’t hestitate share to me!
