[Enhancement] Address input support #21

Open LyrixCaz opened 1 year ago

LyrixCaz commented 1 year ago

Totally love this app. With it i dont have to make an account outside of my nextcloud to keep my places bookmarked. Itll be useful if you can add a location by inputting the address, that way if you want to add all the addresses from say, google maps or waze, youll be able to do so.. itll ease the migration process.

I dont know how to code but i thought a good idea for implementation would be to use something like openstreetmaps or whatever FOSS map service there is.. maybe, it can fetch the maps API from the nextcloud Maps app and use that to resolve the addresses coordinations if thats needed.. i dont know, but i hope this idea may prove of some use.

Yeah, Nominatim search would be phenomenal.

As a workaround for this I am using the OsmAnd app (on android) for searching. I can then share a location to the geobookmarks app via the "geo:" option.
