Long shot, but does anyone know of any mapping app where you can easily project a bearing/azimuth line, or a point a given bearing and distance from another point?

The only app I've found so far that can come close to what I need is Backcountry Navigator, which has a terrible UI. Everything else seems to be focused entirely on GPS navigation from where you are now to a known destination; I have yet to find one that allows even basic triangulation, to be able to identify the location of an observed object.

Not showing up in my f-droid either

Same for me, I had to enable Other-antifeatures in F-droid settings.

Thanks, enabling anti-fearures worked.

I installed it from fdroid, is there a difference between play store and fdroid version?

[–] RmDebArc_5@sh.itjust.works 8 points 10 months ago

I think there is no android auto due no play services

There goes another useful tool that has been made inaccessible for most of the common users.

[–] LedzMx@lemmy.ml 5 points 10 months ago

I can install it at this moment, so I think it was already fixed

Use Obtainium, Add App, paste this URL... https://github.com/organicmaps/organicmaps

No Play store or Fdroid BS.

I like f droid and currently using droidify. On f-droid you have to enable "anti-features" and it's not a bad feature in my opinion. It discloses if it's using non free services.

EEE

[–] SlowRoastedMadness@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Maybe it was a mix up? I just checked their website and clicked on the link they had for playstore and then downloaded it from there.

[–] ModerateImprovement@sh.itjust.works 7 points 10 months ago

I just checked again and I can confirm the same.

I will edit the post to reflect this.

[–] jbk@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 10 months ago

actually normal business for Google Play and smaller apps

[–] bdonvr@thelemmy.club 3 points 10 months ago

Problem is the FDroid version doesn't work with Android Auto iirc
