### 5/5 — Notes for the dev

*2024-04-25*

Hey, programmer here, just a few bugs/improvements i noticed:

1: there aren't actually and widgets or shortcuts for the app

2: the zoom in/zoom out buttons at the bottom seem to be flipped

3: the tap and hold pin works, but the hold is too long and you should add haptics and screenshake so it feels natural

4: labeled and/or coloured pins would be great

Other than that great app, defiantly what i needed.

**Developer response:** Hi there, thanks for using MapKeep and the great feedback! Your five-star review means a lot.

- Currently the app supports Lock Screen widgets and Apple Watch complications but not Home Screen widgets.

- The latest update improves tap and hold as suggested.

If you have future suggestions please feel free to reach out at https://haglund.app/contact

### 5/5 — Feature requests

*2024-01-13*

Could you add the ability to rename the coordinates and the ability to search for an address please and thank you

**Developer response:** Thanks for the five stars! Version 2.0 brings many features like search by address, categories, and moving existing pins. While you can’t directly rename a pin these new features shove should make it much easier to browse your collection.

Thanks again and if you have additional ideas or suggestions please reach out at https://haglund.app/contact
