Select Location for Offers/Map when location services are denied

[MarlonMaercz]

As a customer who has denied the mobile app's location services, I want to be able to select a location of my interest from the Offers page, in order to filter out vouchers to those available to the location of my choosing.

AC's

1. Selecting location manually GIVEN I am a customer logged into the mobile app AND I have denied location services #27 WHEN I open the Offers page THEN I can see: a. "Select location" statement b. List of countries that have some vouchers attached - sorted Asc c. Search feature (I start typing, the list proposes just the options matching to the search request)

2. Displaying vouchers according to selected location GIVEN I am on the Offers page WHEN I select a location manually (N1) THEN the list of locations is closed and the list of Offers appears onscreen - in accordance with the selected location

3. Changing location manually GIVEN I am a customer logged into the mobile app AND I am on the Offers page AND I have defined location of my interest manually (N1, N2) WHEN I click on the < Pin icon > at the top of the screen THEN I can change the selection of the location - same way as in N1 above (the screen with location options opens), plus the screen indicates the currently selected location

4. Applying manually selected location on the map GIVEN I am on the Offers page AND I have defined location of my interest manually (N1, N2) WHEN I click on the location button on the top right of the offers page #63 THEN a map is opened within the mobile app AND the map is centered on the selected location AND I can see on the map all offers available for this location

@MarlonMaercz For AC N1, where is this search located? Where do we fetch this list of places from? Our own BE? Maps API? Keep in mind searching for location has a different free quota for Google maps which, in my previous experiences, is used up fairly quickly. I can find more details if needed.

AC1/ACs It seems there is a UI component that is not described here, I am referring the part "WHEN I click on the". What is this component, where is it placed?

@pddimitrova I have adjusted the desc - it appeared the text taken into '<>' was not displayed :) So "WHEN I click on the" is about the Pin icon that should be introduced for the purpose of selecting the location manually.

AC1: I propose to place the Pin icon at the top of the Offers page (if we don't have a design mockup soon)

It would be efficient to use the list of locations attached to the map (and I believe we don't yet have the list of locations in backend). But if it's not free, we need to investigate the options.

@MarlonMaercz , @ElenaBelyavskaya , do we need to show only countries where partner locations with active voucher campaigns are present? Or the whole list of possible countries that we presented for residence selection?

[ElenaBelyavskaya]

@starkmsu when grooming we decided to show the list of countries where there are some vouchers. Are you ok with it from the tech/development perspective?

[starkmsu]

@MarlonMaercz , @ElenaBelyavskaya , it would be much easier to show the list of countries where existing partners have some locations. Can we use that approach, without additional filtering for existing active voucher campaigns?

[ElenaBelyavskaya]

@starkmsu from the result perspective, this should be the same (or almost the same), because creating partners (with location) is aimed at issuing vouchers; so I don't mind. @MarlonMaercz any objections?

[pddimitrova]

@ElenaBelyavskaya I think I can find a nice map icon that we can use for the map from now on and we can use the current pin icon to select location

[ElenaBelyavskaya]

@pddimitrova @MarlonMaercz I have verified that the description complies with what we have agreed on during the grooming call today (just made a couple really minor improvements)

[pddimitrova]

@MarlonMaercz @ElenaBelyavskaya I have a suggestion concerning a problem. When a user selects a country, we cannot center it directly on the map, because there is no such method in Google maps and we do not have enough information to do it manually.

However, I have the following suggestion. When the user selects a country, we fetch the campaigns for the selected country. I suggest when we add the campaigns to the map as markers, to center the areas= that contains the markers so that all of the markers for the country are visible.

[ElenaBelyavskaya]

@pddimitrova that's a great proposal actually-this way we would definitely show offers on the map (if there is at least one for the country), less chances for an empty map.

I am failing to test the selection of countries - I have denied to detect location (and geo location is Off), but the app still shows offers

[pddimitrova]

@ElenaBelyavskaya There is no build containing this functionality yet. I'll create one now, but we should be mindful of our CI build minutes, we're close to running out

[pddimitrova]

@ElenaBelyavskaya Please download build 0.1.0+2 which does include this functionality

[MarlonMaercz]

@pddimitrova 1a. Pass 1b. Fail: No list is presented 1c. Pass*: suggestion is shown. However, the suggestion must be clicked. It is not recognized if I fully type the country and press enter or done. Will raise a separate ticket for this.

2. Pass
3. Pass* : Does not work when changing location from map and going back to offers screen. Raise a new story for this.
4. Pass CC @ElenaBelyavskaya
