Easiest way to explore Google Street View.

Main features and tips:
- random Street View (select country in preferences)
- add places to favorites (yellow star in left corner)
- moving Street View camera by volume keys (forward - volume up, backward - volume down)
- remembering last position
- drag and droop marker (long click on map to move marker)
- long click favorite star to show favorites list
- full screen on landscape orientation
- share panorama

I have one small issue :(

My house faces due north and when I tap on the icon to load current position the map loads also facing due north.

So I rotate the image so it's looking down my road (east/west) so I am facing in the correct of travel but when I press the volume rocker the map moves north/south effectively slicing through my house instead of moving east/west:(

But apart from that, it's brilliant

Sounds like a good app. But I have a couple of questions.

If I understand this correctly, when your using street view you have to manually advance the view with the rocker buttons right? It won't advance as your driving by it's self?

Will the map view continue to advance as your driving?

Thanks

Fantastic idea from the dev!

I'd like to be able to move from the GMaps or GMaps Engine app to your app seamlessly. To that end, could you let us know what action intent settings we need to use to be able to launch a search for a specific string/address from another app?

I'm thinking of using Tasker to send the intent once I detect an address being copied to the clipboard in GMaps or GMaps Engine

thanks!

Great app,

The GPS icon is still showing on the screen after i closed your app
The location tool says your app is currently using the GPS (after it as closed)

phone: Galaxy S5 4.4.2 Rooted

Thank you, good work !

Cool app!

Does continue using "location" after backing out but killed by omni-switch, icon dissappears.
Repeatedly updates street view even if I do not request change. May correspond to streetview's own refreshes which are even more "glitchy."

Map view seems to have the options I selected in Maps. Street Panorama only offers "traffic."

Questions:
Does this depend on / replace (should I so choose) Maps. Install Maps-engine?
Does this depend on / replace Streetview?

Hi

Thanks for this very sweet app!

Just a suggestion: add in maps panel blue path on road rellay shooted by google; now, if you move maps pin in a non driven area, you got black screen in street view panel.

Hi, have another suggestion:

Would be great if there was a way to import or batch add Favorites (not just by clicking on the star in the App). I could see lots of use-cases, e.g. being able to input one's list of favorite restaurants or cafes, sharing Favorites lists with friends, etc.

On the same note, where is the Favorites data stored? SD card would be better than data/data
