@eessoo_es @OhAnotherAlt it doesn't work but i still love you

[untitled map app @untitledmapapp]

btw i'm thinking about this app every day

[Gaby @GitSquared]

software engineering has this curse where you start from a simple problem and 6 months later you find yourself at 3 am playing with docker containers and encoded polyline geo traces and you’re like how the fuck did i get there

ladies and gentlemen please check your testflights

(if you had an app installed, today you’re getting a big update, featuring… you know what, no, i won’t spoil it for you)

pls send your thoughts and excitement and screenshots our way!

[Gaby @GitSquared]

with this rework, our background path tracing should be good enough that it “just works” 90% the time without you having to think about it.

be ready to see some crazy ideas built on top of that data, as we try different ways to help you explore & get inspired :)

soon!

we’re in the process of wrapping up @untitledmapapp’s next release – it has been a while but we needed to rework some foundations to iterate faster on what we want to build on top.

here’s a before/after:

[untitled map app @untitledmapapp]

walking directions should have an option that allows you to choose the loveliest path

not just the fastest way to get from point A to B

[Patricia Mou @patriciamou_]

google maps walking directions should have an option that allows you to choose the loveliest path

not just the fastest way to get from point A to B

@queromasnquero incredible to see you come up with this! beautiful on every level & exactly how map apps (and our software in general) should work :) elegantly combine different data “dimensions” to make magic slightly more possible

somewhat related:

[eugene, season 2 (work in progress) @eugenekudashev]

imagine if your navigation app could give you slightly different directions:

instead of optimizing for speed, it would walk you through streets that you never (or rarely) been through

making your bike commute, or your walk through the downtown, new!

UNTITLED MAP APP. soon!

@drewfagin @eugenekudashev so do we bestie🥰

[drew 🌊 @toowerdy]

@eugenekudashev hope to maybe replace with untitled map one day ❤️

@cowchimp @GitSquared what Gabe said +

[eugene, season 2 (work in progress) @eugenekudashev]

it has been brought to my attention that when you say "Testflight" 100 times in your tweets, emails, and elsewhere, people naturally begin to assume that @untitledmapapp will be available on iOS only

luckily, we want to be everywhere, so Android would be the very next thing!!

@GitSquared a blog? in this economy?

yes please

(a blog that’s also a vlog)

[Gaby @GitSquared]

lots of cool challenges behind this one, including geometry computations, splitting work in another thread to not slow down the UI, iterative GPS trace crawling that can survive app crashes and phone shutdowns... maybe we need to start an uma engineering blog?

[Gaby @GitSquared]

over the last weeks we've entirely rewritten the code for tracing your path in the fog, to make it automated, smooth as butter, and unlock future features

coming to an @untitledmapapp near you very soon!

[dany @danywander]

how do you handle this enormous amount of points on your gmaps?

what would you like to change or get as a tool to manage it properly?

to answer the most popular question in DMs over here🚨

- new testflight invites will go out when Gabe wraps up the new build

- after shipping = more invites

- it’s the good old “first come first serve”

- but if you’re really impatient, 💫we accept apple pay starting monday💫
