That makes sense, thanks for the explanation. I agree with the conclusion that plus codes aren't that useful in any scenario where both users are online, and can just access a database with all the necessary information. I wonder if it would make sense for your app to use plus codes as a fallback for scenarios where one or both users sharing an address are currently *not *online?
For example, I assume the QR codes displayed by your app contain an ID value referencing the address data. If the QR code *also* contained a plus code directly, that could be used to at least display *something* even if the user is not currently online. Would a statement like "1.5km to the north-west - more information if you're back online" be useful, or is connectivity not an issue that needs to be solved in your app's case? -- Public site: http://www.openlocationcode.com/ Github project: https://github.com/google/open-location-code Demo site: http://plus.codes/ --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Plus Codes Community Forum" group.
