Panoramax Pictures is such a killer feature!

Any specific places where I can test this out?

The Eiffel tower. Note it just gives you a link rn and doesn't show the image in app. Also the current image isn't 360 but there are 360 Panoramax photos in thr area.

Yes, the feature is to link to the photos.

F-Droid takes a bit longer to release.

Yeah i know how it is. Thanks for the info anyways tho :)

Those, who want the new version asap, but don't want to do updates fully manually, may use Obtainium (F-Droid link) to directly download and install the original apk from GitHub/Codeberg/etc.

When I try to add CoMaps to Obtanium, either by search or by copying repository lik, I get "error 401". Does anybody have an idea what could be the problem?

Did you try adding it from the main or the releases page?

For me adding has worked with the releases page.

Alternatively, you may try the workaround discribed here.

I'm adding "https://codeberg.org/comaps/comaps/releases".

Setting "Override source" to HTML worked, thank you!

Does anyone know if there's a way to make contour lines or pic map details stay in view when zooming out? Main roads are shown but natural features don't. E.g. if I want to look at an area to find a lake visually I have to stay zoomed in or otherwise details disappear pretty quickly (in terms of zoom)

Anybody else having an issue where maps won't fully download? I tried a couple different regions and they all stop at 93.27%
