I’m working on an app where a core functionality is displaying locations to the user. However, it seems like most implementations of embedded maps require using a tile server where the map of an area is downloaded on demand. However, would this not give a pretty accurate idea of what location a user is viewing to the tileserver? Are there any options that are more privacy friendly/secure, or is the best option to open the location in the user’s default map app which could be something that works offline like Organic Maps?
Yes
But convenience would dictate to have in-app map view, maybe you can have a toggle in settings so users can opt-in to the less private one?
I see, if there’s no better solution then that would be acceptable. Do you have any recommendations on embedded map view would be recommended and acceptable for publishing on F-Droid?
