The new field is invisible to users. I find lat lon from address parts and store an estimate so that we don’t need to send your address to google every time we do something related to location. it greatly reduces our exposure of your sensitive info.

you just need to click save at the bottom and the info gets stored

But I have, many times…

I’m seeing that it’s saved. are you still getting the message that you have no location?

11

I am.

Same for me. No location despite clicking on save.

The feed recommends that I review a “nearby” brewpub in Fiji that is out of business. :joy:
