Location Check - BETA

Description

THIS IS THE BETA VERSION OF LOCATION CHECK WIDGET</p><p>This version uses network connection to get the name of city of your LAST KNOWN LOCATION. This is to check that your LAST KNOWN LOCATION (data used in other apps, like Clarity Watch Face) is sufficiently near your actual current location so that data displayed is relevant. Adding the city name (looked up via network connection / google reverse geolookup) helps increase the understanding of this location. If you don't want that, you can revert to the non-beta version where no city name is displayed.</p>

I am going to give 5 stars because I am not an ass. This widget has great potential and I am looking forward to being able to see more detail. It would be amazing if the need for a network connection would go away. Keep working hard, I am excited to see what you come up with! I like the Fenix2/Tactix ability to load maps created by this site: http://www.gmaptool.eu/en/content/maps-garmin-fenix

Why need network connection?

If you don't have a network connection, the widget will display map and coordinates only. With network connection, it will also display the town, state and country of your last known location. It's a simple Reverse Geocoding Google Maps API lookup.

Looks great so far. The actual location with do.mm are off the screen on my fenix 3 Saphire on the bottom. It doesn't paragraph like shown. Only one long string. Thanks.
