GPS Location: Widget that supports satellite view

Hi There,

I've asked in the past if you could fix the form GPS Location and add this option to your widget:  mapTypeId: 'satellite' 

I really would like to use it in my form https://form.jotform.co/80368192005857, so customers can mark their roof,  but without the Satellite option there is no roof and it is useless :-/

It seems to be quiet easy fix to add this option...I know that one of you opened a ticket for this last year but nothing has been done :-(

Please don't suggest me any other google widgets, as we've been through them last year! the GPS location with the search box is what I need but with Satellite only and NOT a road map.

this is what I'm trying to achieve:

Thank you...

Effie

The GPS Location widget does not support satellite view. However, the Location Coordinates widget does support satellite view.

For example:

I know that from the discussion with your support team last year, but you can't get it on the screen unless the customer find the satellite button and click it which is not practical. If you could make it come up when the page load I could probably use it?

Thanks, Effie

Hi Effie,

We can also submit a request for the feature to have the Location Coordinate widget use the Satellite view by default.

I suggest you create a separate thread for that request here https://www.jotform.com/contact

Provide as much details as you can and we will send it to our dev team.

Thanks.

mmm...not sure what you mean - I just created a separated thread here? do you want me to re post it again? not sure what do you mean

Hi,

For the Location Coordinate widget, I have forwarded a feature request to our developers on this thread: https://www.jotform.com/answers/1448034

About the GPS Location widget, do you want to create another feature request for the satellite view?

We'll wait for your reply. Thank you.

Yes please...actually I prefer  the GPS Location widget as it is smaller and more suitable for your new Jotform cards!  also customers can see straight away where to enter their address rather than scroll down and look for it among the other feilds (I only need the address search bar).   I only mentioned the Location Coordinate widget...as one of the support guys suggested that its already 'supporting' satellite...which its not really if you can't set it up as a default.  one way or another I need a solution to go nicely with my Jotform cards.

Thank you!

Hey Effie,

I've logged this ticket as a feature request. You will be notified in case of any updates.

Cheers!

Hi There,

It has been more than a month. I need at least to know if your team are intending to change any of it ever, or should I look for another company/solution. I need the customer to be able to enter their address and show us their roof just like in the image below. I need the widget to pop up with the satellite straight away. If you are not able to do it or will not do it its ok - I will move on to find another solution, but please just let me know. Thank you

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Unfortunately, we still do not have updates on this feature request. We also cannot provide an ETA when the request will be available.

Thank you.
