User guide for the Maps app?

[songdog]

The Maps app is good at showing me where I am, but I don’t know how to use it for more than finding out my current location. What’s that little arrowhead thing with distance measuring? Can I measure distance between two points on the map, or my current location and somewhere else? Can I get it to show me my latitude and longitude, or display a map at a particular latitude/longitude?

Is there a user guide somewhere that explains how to unlock all of its capabilities?

The only documentation for Maps is the following one (it’s editable by the user) :

Note: Documentation in this section is Work in progress. Help us update it. Help us make /e/ better !! Icon Maps App Main Screen [maps_icon] [magic_earth_mainscreen] About the Maps app Actual app: Magic Earth (privacy report by Exodus). Read more about the Maps app. How to use the Maps app Permissions required by the Maps app You can access Permissions under Settings >> App & notifications >> See all apps >> Maps >>App Permissions Camera Contacts Location Microphone …

But if you want to perfectly know the app, you will have to play with it and try things.

Thanks, that’s a good introduction for me. I’ll explore…

Also, there is quite a lot of information if you select 'Settings | Support | Tips and Tricks

The same information is available on the Support section of the Magic Earth web site
