Seems like this is using google maps and no choice to use open street maps! #28
Comments
I am working on a new version of Traccar Manager that would be based on the web interface. Obviously it downloads data when you zoom, so it needs internet. Google Maps have petabytes of data, so it's not possible to save it all locally. |
okay thanks! and thanks for all your hard work. hope its out soon! i love this project! very useful :) |
@tananaev, what do you mean by Traccar Manager based on web interface ? Does it make use of web views or apache cordova (hybrid app) ? What is the reason behind the rewrite ? Does current version of Android manager is unusable or is it going to maintained? |
Is there any beta or preview version available for now to visualize the UI ? |
It will use WebView and embed regular web interface. The reason is lack of resources to develop two apps in addition to the web app. There is no preview yet, but it will be very similar to mobile version of the web interface, so you can check what it looks like. |
Great to hear it. Is source code available for testing right now ? So, that we can help in testing. |
@tananaev, we tried it and it is working fine. Finally all features in Mobile app. |
For now it will be just webview, but we can consider using native toolbar at some point. Please create a separate thread for that feature. |
@tananaev When will the web view tree be available on Google Play? |
When I find time to fix remaining issues and release it. |
How can i modify the webview file to remove some of the menu options i do not need? |
Is it possible to support the freedom to choose the map layer just like on the server web interface?
For the users who want to use open street maps, instead of the current google maps.
What do you think?
Also, Are the current google maps downloaded or does it need internet to zoom in, does it download the map as you use it?
