Unable to add my map to android app


#1

Hello,

I’ve recently created a public map http://florayfaunafvet.crowdmap.com/ and I was trying to generate a report on my android tablet via Ushahidi app. The problem is that my map is not listed on nearby maps and I can’t add it by the html address.

Am I d0ing something wrong?

Thanks for your help!

Hi Luisandresgonzalez, can you confirm that you are following the steps to add a map as per this prezi documentation link?

Yes Heather, I tried to follow the steps on the Prezi documentation, although they’re not designed for the android app, just the iPad/iPhone one, and there are some differences. Also, there are only two slides regarding the map addition and there’s no text with more precise instructions.

In the prezi slideshow it appears that after you set your personal details the maps show up. That’s assuming your phone/tablet has GPS function. Otherwise, the maps screen shows nothing.  I’ve changed some of the settings in my tablet to look for my actual location through the network (it doesn’t have GPS) and now it finds the map I’ve created.

The other method I’ve tried different from that was adding it by URL. That didn’t worked. Am I supposed to type ALL the data word by word on that form or just the URL will suffice?

Thanks for the attention!
