Adding TipKit to GoMap to surface potentially hidden features

Open GA-Kevin-Codes opened this issue 8 months ago • 1 comments

Hello! I would like to contribute to GoMap!! by adding TipKit support to the application. Here is how TipKit is explained by Apple:

Use TipKit to show contextual tips that highlight new, interesting, or unused features people haven’t discovered on their own yet.

The application has so many useful pieces that I seem to find a new way to use it everyday! This is exactly the type of thing that TipKit is made for. There are a few obvious good tips if a user has'nt discovered them on their own:

  • GPX Traces
  • Quests
  • Map Layers
  • OHM & OGM contributions

However, I want to gauge if this is something that the community / users of GoMap would want and if so, what they think could be highlighted.

Thanks in advance! Looking forward to your thoughts!

I think this would be a great addition. There are a bunch of places where it would be beneficial, starting with:

  • location and orientation buttons
  • search button
  • map layers, as you say
  • tips on different ways to use the + button, many of which are undocumented
