  Hi,

  Kind regards

  Which of the OS map series are available on Premium?

  Thanks again for your feedback Harp.  I've added your suggestion of making the Map Inspector available on the Route Viewer and Compass Map pages to our Feature Requests list (number 147), where people can vote for it. As you can see, we have a very long list of requests, so I can't say when this might happen. Our focus right now is on the ones at the very top of the list!

  Thanks, Admin.   I'm assuming that the Grid Ref would then appear in the Map Inspector through double-tapping the location blob in both the Map and Compass (no cross hairs) and Route Planning (cross-haired) views? Since my app defaults to the first of these upon opening, that'd be great, thanks.
  
  While I'm here, is there a way that one's current location can appear as a blob (with the same tappable Map Inspector as above) on the View Route option? Doing this, rather than using the full Navigate Route, might be less demanding on the mobile-device battery?
  
  Thanks, as always.

  Thanks for the feedback Harp. I don't think we'd be able to do number1 but we'll add number 2 to the list.

  PS Re my comment immediately below, I note that requested item '2' is indeed available on the desktop site, but not on the mobile app, where it would be a very useful addition for, e.g., informing emergency services of one's location.

  Hi Admin.
  
  I note from the thread below that one can (now) search for a grid reference in the Route Planner, so ... 
  
  ... for the mobile app, would there be any possibility of adding the grid reference (in all map categories) both:

  1. immediately below the existing corresponding lat/long data at the top-left of the main menu's Map and Compass view;
  2. in the Map Inspector text-panel data that appears when double-tapping the cross-hairs in the Route planner view?

  I think this would be a very useful addition to your already-phenomenal app. Many thanks.
  
  While I'm here, the graphic simplicity and navigation of your desktop and mobile sites is to be lauded. Keep up the great work.
  
  Thanks

  Mark

  No problems, could be useful, but I understand your concerns re swamped with tabs! I thought I was missing something

  Thanks

  Hi Colin - we deliberately didn't add the Street View link to the Map Inspector in the mobile route planner, as we were worried that this could be clicked on accidentally and lead to people being swapped into another tab, as it would necessitate opening a new tab. We can certainly have a look at it though.

  Hi, I see there's been an issue with double tapping the crosshairs to bring up the map inspector, which was addressed. I'm now able to get the map inspector dialogue with a double tap, but the box does not show the link to open Google maps, at the bottom, as I get when using PC. I'm running mobile android. Am I missing something please? Thank you. Colin
