What3Words via the App #10

Closed philsturgeon closed 2 years ago

philsturgeon commented 3 years ago

Currently I've got a Pipedream hooked up to add What3Words whenever Coordinates are available, but having the app do this as part of the upload process would be one less moving part to worry about (and another service we dont need to pay for when this thing hits a certain size).

Lets not bother showing it the user as an entry thing, just have it happen as part of the upload process, so its not trying to hit an API in the field, that would be great.

During the upload process, if W3W is failing (its down, or we hit an API usage limit) it can upload without, and pipedream can just figure it out later. I doubt that will ever happen, so we can see if we need it, and I'll turn pipedream back on only if we see that happen.

Ignore this, we don't want to add any more network interactions or battery draining to the app.
