Geo Location
Question
Hi guys,
 
I’ve been challenged by the costumer for geo location.
I’ve tried the the Geo Ip Location, but I have version 6.0.1.x and I cannot deploy the extension.
I’ve been seeking on google, and I found it a bit inaccurate for what I need. Let’s say, I want a location so I can give the user the closest store. As this is a mobile app, as anyone used GPS if exists? I think it’s only possible if you do a native app, am I right?
Cheers !

Hello Francisco,

its possible also on web apps using a middle layer like PhoneGap. Take a look here its already "ported" to OutSystems.

regards,
Miguel

I've already seen phonegap post before, but I got the Idea that it was actually to "convert" your outsystems app into a native app.
I've give it a clean look.
Thanks for the tip !

EDIT: I just found, the solution pack Tool is not compatible with my platform version 6.0.1.6. Same error as the geo Location one.
