Hi there awesome inovation community! Looking for ideas/solutions to using mapping tools like Google maps API, that cost $$$ monthly, with little to no cost. Perhaps a mapping app Idea similar to [waze.com](http://waze.com)?? Is there a way to hook into a generic version of a “waze-like” API and use it in the Glide app???
