What’s new?
We are preparing an update to the GPS mobile app. This release technically still falls within the realm of the original "MVP1" feature set, as it includes:
Major improvements to location-tracking accuracy on iOS
Spanish as a supported language (joining English and Haitian Kreyol), in preparation for an upcoming launch with a new jurisdiction!
