Good to see that you are reporting wrong location to us, we will check that location out shortly. You probably didn't know this due to our lack of instruction in the app, but the app does have a feature where when you are at a location that isn't accurate, you can correct the location on your device.
The way to do it is. 1. Click on the detail of the location(Walgreen), 2 Click on the triangle sign(button). 3. The app will search for a GPS signal and when it lock in, press the fix button. That will send us the right coordinate for that particular location and it will also reflect in your device right away. No need to way for us to correct it. This will also help order people in your area out too .
Thank You for using YAH !

thanks a lot

I see flags, lot of flags on the map and list, what's wrong? I see some retailer graphic, but lot more flags now!!! Though when i click on flag it shows me a list of retailers and flag next to it. Not as intuitive as having icons. Can you get the retails logo back?

dumble_bee,
I had this same problem the first time I installed it yesterday. It was in the middle of loading the icons and then my data connection dropped. It left with a bunch of flags and restarting the app didn't help. I found a fix for this, by wiping the catch and data in the setting->management application. Once I did that all the icons came in.
f8andbethere,
Thanks for this pretty useful app. I now know there is a RiteAid store that is closer to the one I normally go to because of this. I will take it for a drive this weekend and will report back.

Did that, helped only partially! i can see bevmo yay! but I still see lot of flags i.e. AutoZone is a blue flag? and so are others...
heeellllppppp...do i have to reset the device to clean it up?

We know about the bug Carlos mentioned and will fix that in our next major release. The work around is what Carlos has described. Go the setting->manage application->you are here->clear cache and data.
dumble bee,
If you are only missing some icons then that is because we are a bit behind on icon creation as we were focus on pushing a lot of new data last week. We will fix it shortly.
You probably saw some local food places with just flags in your area. Those we will probably never fix unless they are very well known.
f8

dumble bee,
Pushed some icons last night. Give it a go and let us know if you still have issue. Autozone should be there now.
Enjoy,
F8

Took this out for a last minute shopping in San Francisco yesterday. Worked out pretty good. Data came in pretty quickly. The only problem was in the middle of downtown the GPS went in and out because of tall buildings. Other than that it worked great.
Carlos

Nice concept. Would be cool if it could also access one of those online coupon databases and show you coupons/sales/deals for stores around you.

SwiftLegend,
Thank you for your input. We are actually working on the exact feature you are requesting. It will probably be in beta in a few weeks.
Thanks,
F8

F8,
If you need someone to test the coupon/deal beta when it is ready let me know.
Carlos

This looks awesome. Giving it a try.

[Question] - Android screen video capture?
Done anyone know of any suitable way to capture video of running app on android device?
I've tried several
Capture apps (none reliable though, one said it was taking view, but did not store it, another was unable to start the service). BTW on a rooted dev.
Moto webtop (this really sucks @ 5fps)!!
Thinking about getting a phone grip, putting camcorder on stand over my shoulder and do the job. But what about screen glare from the phone? Anyone had any experience with these?
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.roundere

does it support coupons in asia ?

@ aquaphx if you're interested we can certainly do it.
Tell you the truth we have the basic framework, just a few more lines of code and some testing would get it there.
would you be interested?

I've tried screencast http://code.google.com/p/androidscreencast/, must say its impressive effort and in the right direction. Easy to use and developer clearly sets expectations.
For my purpose i need higher FPS, hence I'm headed out to walmart to get a phone grip and will use my old camcorder, not sure if outcome will be as impressive, but another hour of trial & error, will post results as once I'm done.

Check out the demo video @ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oF0Sv8GI7Lg
First shot @ it, but turned it ok,
Equipments used
- video camera
- tripod
- white gift box turned
- kiddie table
- tape
Change display settings on the phone to never timeout and set display brightness to manual (max it out).
point the camcorder straight down, tape the back of the phone to gift box, tape the gift box to a kiddie table. Point and focus your camera down to the phone. Found manual focus helps, since screen display changes can trigger auto focus. And make sue to use 'one finger' -- haha.
Time spent 1 hour and 30 minutes to everything, including adding Music track (credits in youtube video). Could improve with more editing and some additional lights.

We know how exactly that can be - from my location see only 5-6 PoI's total, I have to pan the map quite a bit to get interesting stuff.
BTW what kind of PoI would you be interested in? Name of any local stuff would help us get that data.

Updated from 1.0.4 to 1.5. I have been putting it off because the last version were working fine. Well, I got to say 1.5.0 is awesome. I am still running Samsung galaxy 1 with 2.1 and the performance of panning the map is much smoother now. I got to love the coupon tags sticking out of Target and Best Buy. Now more reasons for me to buy gadgets I might not ever need . Good job guys !
db

@db thks. would recommend turning on auto updates on the app. please do rate us as well.
R u able to see more data?

Yes, I see there are a lot of local restaurants added in my area which is great. I love the fact that now when I click on an unknown place, your app automatically do a quick search on the web and display review information. No more having to exit the app and text up on google search. Love it.
I am going out of town this weekend, so i will be using this a lot.

don't forget to show us some love -- rate the app favorably on market (if that's where you installed it from). let us know if you have a feature request, maybe we can name the feature after you

F8, Beta crashed on me last night. emailed you the log. Went back to 1.5 release.

Carlos,
Looking at the stack now. Do you remember which area of the map you were in when this happened? This can't happen unless our data is bad or during downloading the data got corrupted.
F8

quick update on data
* Added more pubs and bars
* even more night life spots
* some regional chains
If you can't see new categories, you may have to clear your data cache .

Updated with 1.5.1 : minor bug fixes.
If you have 4.0 phone there is
an outstanding issue on Android Ice Cream Sandwich 4.x phones http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=19857 is really Android framework issue.
f8

I did a complete uninstall of 1.5 official first then put in the beta, now it is working. So I am thinking upgrading to the beta directly isn't working. I will let you know if I run into other problem while testing this beta out.

If you dont have a prerelease version, at least you could post some screenshots so people have some ideea what are you taking about. Who knows maybe its a good nav app.
EDIT: now your OP its just fine, i only post it from the first place because i saw over 150 views of your thread and poor description.

sadly i have to post 10 replys before ican add pictures and download links to my theads. But i am on it.
So the link and pictures will follow in a bit. When you look in Google Play for "Clicknav" you can find it.
Cheers

do people really need directions/navigation to places they go to frequently?
Sorry but i dont really see the purpose in this

I tend to agree. Even going to familiar places from unfamiliar ones wouldn't seem to need an app.
It may have been a programming exercise f for the op.

Its not necessary that one needs to be familiar with a route. Let's take an example ...
I go to Australia to visit my Bro (am unfamiliar with Australia as I live in the Middle East). Once am at his place I take his spare car and drive round the country side and need to get back home :s Had I set a marker before I left my bro's place, I could get directions easily. Ok, that was day 1. Day 2, I move out again ... remember I know my brother's place if I am near or about the locality but have no clue of where I am when I drive beyond a point. This could help me.
Now, if I have a widget on my launcher, I could use this right through my Australian trip.
That said, I have not tried this app yet. I do wish that this could tie up/ integrate with other offline map apps too such as Sygic, etc. When I am at my home, I use Google Maps a lot, but when I am touring, I use offline maps to save on my data. Would be good if I could go through Google maps on my PC, place markers and then have it pop up in my offline map application when I do not want to use Google maps.

I like this app, it is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks for it.

It's not only usefull for common places. You can add any place you want. For example for a trip preparation.
You can also search places in Google Maps and for later use you can send the place to the app and safe it.
I work a lot in different citys and i use it dayly to get around. If you live in a small town it is easy to find your way but in big citys which you are not familiar with it's always a nightmare.
And with the categories you can easily manage your addresses for example by work, friends, family, discos and so on.
There are a lot people whih are brilliant in navigation but i am a bit stupid with this. so i created the app to help people like me to find there way faster(one click or even with a widget) and more easy.

Hello everybody.
I hope you hav fun with my app.
I added some new features which makes it more usable and a little help for beginners.
Features:
- save of last category
- added help
- added menu
- added button in menu to get current gps position

Great app, but is there any way of getting rid of the annoying ads at the bottom?

In the newest version i made them already less anoying. Because in the past the ads pushed the buttons away. Now the buttons stay where they are so that you can't accidentally press the ads.
And if i would put them on top then the ads would push away the list and then you maybe navigate to a location you don't want.
And i wanted to give a free app with full functionality instead of a demo version.
So i use the ads because it cost me a lot of work to create this app and to make it runable on a lot of systems.(Hopefully it's bug free)

I'm liking the app so far you. I would gladly pay a $1 to have an ad free version. I had a few suggestions that hopefully could be added.
1. Even though when we save a location it saves the latitude and longitude can it also fill in the complete address for the location.
2. More labels notes is a good start phone would be another good one or even better you can add your own
3. maybe when you are in the location edit the button that you use to launch could instead be a street view image of the location.
4. option to change distance from km to miles for the US
5. options to sort addresses A-Z, distance from you etc...
6. more background colors and styles

Thanks a lot for those tips. After i read this i needed to implement some of this stuff in my app.
So here are the new features:
- automatic suggestions while you type in the address (only works with active internet connection)
- new labels like phone number, email and web
- new search function
- show distance in miles and feet
- sort locations by distance
- new info window with automatic functions like call, send email and start browser
Hope you have fun with the app. And please tell me if you have any trouble or if you like to see other stuff in the app.
PS.: I think about a payable version of the app without ads. But at the moment the amount of users is too small.
But you can change that

Now a new Version is out with new features.
- added public transport navigation
- fixed an import export bug
- small grafic changes
- when you share an address out of the new version of google maps 7.0 than the application will be able to read the information

REQUEST: Allow integration with KLets voice command

Click to collapse
Hi,
First of all thanks for your great app. Really useful.
As many other users, I prefer to use a voice command when I'm on the road. So far the best for me is KLets and I was thinking if you could allow its developer to add support for your app in order to be able to launch a Clicknav's location item with the voice command: "Navigate to" + "location name".
There's a discussion in the support forum of KLets. Hopefully you could help us.
http://www.voicecontrolapp.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=13463&p=16631#p16631
The idea is to allow external access to the location list and be able to invoke a location item via Intents (maybe there's an easier way).
Thanks in advance

SCREENS:

Hey guys, you are welcome to put your comments here, we will appreciate it much!

If anyone has suggestions, it would be great, or at least if you say that this app is great

I'll test it out when I go on a hike next. I'll comment my thoughts after I do!
Edit: Okay after installing it and playing for a few minutes I have to say I do like the app. Just a few things I noticed, nothing bad. Just what I feel would make it well polished. No disrespect.
1; You could use a pin to signify my location instead of the android. Pin on a map. Classic.
2; Swiping between tabs would be amazing.
3; When you have a GPS fix and go to the Map tab, it would be nice if it automatically pans to your location. I know you can do this by clicking a location in Saved Locations tab and clicking show on map, but it would be nice for the app to do it automatically just so when you go to the map it shows the area around you if you're exploring new areas around you. Mine always starts over Africa and I have to move it back to NY, USA to get to my location.
Everything else is nice though. I like it. Indeed works offline with no connection. Good app.

RoyJ, Thanks a lot for your review!!!
1) Could be, but just for fun, and better distinguish I use this droid. Because, once you add a lot of locations you will lose your current location in case it will be the same pin (just colored in another way )
2) Yeah, thinking of it, probably will add it
3) You shouldn't choose location in list, you can just tap map tab.
There is option in menu on map tab(bind to me) - this option allow you be always in the center of map.
If fix is available - you will see green line at the top(it is red if GPS is not available). At this moment - just go to the map and bind map to you, it will move with you
Enjoy!
I'm always open to discuss and help if you need it.

Unfortunately no, you can't find your phone using Location Detector. I though about implementing such application, but it will be another story.
Location detector is being used for getting back to places you saved, or if you are want to reach some totally unknown places. So you just add it on the map, save to your list, and navigate to the necessary place.

With GeoReality you can not only search for places but you can also manually add places to the Map (either by selecting them on the map, or by entering their latitude and longitude).
You can add your close friends locations with their contact info (phone number, photo) to the Map, then use the Camera as a visual browser to search for a contact..

Share your location with your friends on Facebook or send it as a message via Whatsapp, Viber, Messenger, or by SMS..
The message will include a link that can be opened with GeoReality to add your location to the recipient Map.
Meet your friend on the street and allow him to “see” where you are using the Camera.
Give your workplace address to a customer.
Send your location to an emergency or delivery service if you don’t know where you are or if the addressing system in your country is not efficient.
Send your friend the location of a restaurant or any place he asked you for, by changing your own location on the Map to that place.
By sending your location with SMS: No need for internet connection => better coverage and lower cost.
The location link in the message could be opened with any Maps app running on Android or iOS if the recipient doesn’t have GeoReality.

GeoReality vs Pokemon Go
Augmentation technology for different purposes...

GeoReality Theoretical Principal
GeoReality is an innovative project that combines both of Augmented and Virtual Reality in a single platform. It stands at the middle point where augmentation and virtualization meet, giving you the same experience either for your real or virtual location..
It can be seen as a combination of essential services from all of Google Maps, Google Street View and Google Earth with additional features. For example GeoReality is the only app that lets you navigate and get directions in Street View..
GeoReality exploits augmentation technology to its extremes.. Its not just about overlaying digital information over a camera perview: by using the Location Based Actions and Notifications feature the digital information will augment your physical location..
I'm still updating the app to reach the best user experience, but your HELP is really needed..
So if you have a question, suggestion or a critic, PLEASE leave a replay to this post and I will be glad to answer it..
Thanks

New version is now in production..
What's new:
* Ability to set the Search and View Range in Camera preview.
* Quickly change your location on the Map by dragging the "Pegman" to the new location.
* Some visual and performance improvements.

In the new version:
* Share your location with your friends on Facebook or send it as a message via Whatsapp, Viber, Messenger, or by SMS..
* Enhanced algorithm for distributing the places markers on Camera view

After using the new version for a week:
This app is one of best navigation apps I have ever seen.
It adds fun to everything and also it's pretty useful.
I used it last month in the Pokéwalks it adds more fun and I actually use it instead of the Pokémon Go app to reach the location of the Pokémon.
Thank you very much for this awesome app and for keeping updating it
Everyone should give it a try to see what I'm talking about

Geo Reality: Augmented Street View With Navigation:

GeoReality - Camera/Map Dual View Mode
With the dual view mode you can merge the map with the camera preview or Street view giving you higher awareness about your location and the surrounding places shown using the augmentation technology.
Many design changes and improvements have been done to GeoReality app in its latest update, in addition to adding the dual view mode.
The dual view mode provides the basic map tools like navigating to the selected places without the need to switch to the map page.
You can also change your virtual location in the Street View by dragging the Pegman icon to the desired location.
The map orientation will be synchronized with camera orientation but you can change the map view type to pan and move the map to any other area.

Augmented Reality Navigation while Driving:
Navigate to any place using the mobile camera, just by following the navigation path waypoints and directions.
#GeoReality has optimized its navigation capabilities for driving mode by using voice directions and not depend solely on compass orientation -which could be affected by magnetic interference inside the car- but also use the GPS orientation.
