Hi!

Is it possible to create an input field for a lat/long location. I want that app users can registrate a certain location in a form which is not address.

Thanks!

If you are just looking for simple input, then all you need are a couple entry fields to let the user type in Lat/Lon. Both entries would need to be later joined into one column, or you could just have them type into one single column. As long as it’s in the correct format, then it will show properly on a map.

If you are looking for the app to pull in the users current location or for them to select a location on a map to save, then that is not possible at this time.
