It would be great to be able to access the users location in order to filter for location specific content. For example local events or classes etc..

One might be able to do this in post with Mix Panel data and an IP matching service like MaxMind.

Yes I have a tourism “near me” solution that could happen if this was implemented. For another project, it would be good to capture the location of the driver to notify the store of the location. So an automated get location would trigger every 30 secs and update the driver location field.

I truly wonder when will this feature come available. We developed app for restaurants but it’s limiting our ability to expand due to this feature not being available. Any updates? I know you guys said a few months but just curious if anything has changed
