We discussed doing this a year or so ago, and decided not to add to the featureset, in particular (IIRC) because those methods weren't very reliable.

Regarding Android: See https://github.com/owntracks/android/issues/642 or the countless other issues for that. We might eventually add that if anyone can dedicate some time.

Also, we're also able to check Stackoverflow or read the docs for ways to do this technically.

Pitty. Sorry if I reposted anything, was only looking in the talk project rather than android/ios.
