CamerAlert Enhancement Requests

DennisN · Posted: Thu May 06, 2010 8:12 am Post subject:

For reporting/editing/moving cameras, I find that the tiny location crosshairs are very small (and first few times I did it, I didn't even notice it - just accepted that wherever I pressed the button the camera would be located). What chance of making it the same as the pointer on the forum submission page?

It would be great if this app could somehow be overlayed onto the standard google maps for iPhone...

Google maps allows navigation, and overlaying this camera database onto it would mean everyone could have both at a cost of pennies - rather than pay 10's of ££'s for other third party navigation software. I'm not sure if it would require a license from google, but it should be technically possible and would mean there would be no need to draw your own maps.

other than that, it's a great app.

I have looked through this forum but unless I am overlooking the obvious I can't see any reference to an iOS4 specific version. Can we expect a version supporting multitasking shortly ?

It would be useful if the maps could be cached (maybe specify max amount of memory to use in settings) - you could therefore use wi-fi to preload a route which would avoid having areas of grey screen when reception gets poor.

Could we have an option to use small simple standard icons, instead of the pictures of the camera type or policeman hunched over a camera/ I don't find the current picture icons particulalry clear when just catching a quick glance, especially the greyed out policeman. Also to me on the iPhone4 display they just look too big when the map is zoomed out?

Another vote for better icons such as GerryCs set.

Also an option to have a bit of a pause before the audio for those using Bluetooth units. All I've ever heard so far is bits of audio such as "obile" or just the speed.

Maybe a couple of better alerts. Some of them seem to be from Windows?

Hi

Since there is odd behaviour with the IPOD control of volume, in addition to the fade and pause can you add none so the sound is maintained at the standard volume and not manipulated by the app.

Google maps has a traffic overlay which would be excellent if the overlay can be added to the map data.

Thanks
