Location edit - allow to center on GPS provided location
What is the user problem or growth opportunity you want to see solved?
User should not be expected to scroll to their current location through half the world
How do you know that this problem exists today? Why is this important?
I just tried to add location and have up
Who will benefit from it?
People adding location to uploads
Anything else you would like to add?
No response
Yes, the first time you are dropped at a random location in San Francisco, but then the app remembers the last location you chose 🙂
Adding a "center on location" button like in Google Maps is a great idea, there is a good probability that it will be nearer to where the picture was taken than San Francisco. Please note that using GPS often results in permission issues, so it might not be trivial to implement&test though.

and also likely closer than the last remembered location!
Feel free to work on it (as far as I am concerned - and it seems that noone else is working on it)
@pwq334107948 Have you noticed that this issue is already assigned to @russianbear222 ? Hopefully you two can collaborate (for instance to add unit tests) but in the future please make sure the issue is assigned to you before starting coding 🙂
@russianbear222 Feel free to pull pwq's code and improve it, thanks!
@matkoniecz I added a new pull request, however, I wasn't able to do unit tests, I don't understand its format.
