frso80 Posted April 8, 2019 Report Share Posted April 8, 2019 I recently found out that you are able so zoom in/out using one hand/thumb in Apple Maps. To do this you double tap somewhere on the map and then move your thumb up and down. This feature would be awesome in Cachly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though this works in the stand alone Apple Maps app, iOS does not provide a way to do this when those maps are included in apps like Cachly. However, our Premium Offline Maps and Google Maps do offer this way of zooming in. Hopefully iOS will change this in the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, not currently as that still uses the Apple provided map framework. It would take a lot of touch gesture hacking of that map, which isn't a good idea.

0 frso80 Posted May 26, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2019 Would it be possible to add two icons on the map an + and - so you can zoom in/out by clicking them? Also I noticed that this double tapping and move up and down to zoom in and out worked on the premium offline maps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, this would clutter up the interface. You can double tap to zoom and two finger tap to zoom out. 15 hours ago, frso80 said: Also I noticed that this double tapping and move up and down to zoom in and out worked on the premium offline maps. Yes! This works in Premium offline and Google Maps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 frso80 Posted September 20, 2019 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2019 Don't know if it's you (if it is, then great work!) who made this possible on all maps (even tile-maps) or if it's a feature in iOS, but it's awesome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apple Maps (in developer apps) finally supports this in iOS 13, while the other map types have had this since Cachly 5.0. frso80 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Question

I recently found out that you are able so zoom in/out using one hand/thumb in Apple Maps. To do this you double tap somewhere on the map and then move your thumb up and down. This feature would be awesome in Cachly.
