  • Yes, sorry about that, it's been something I have really been missing, and it's no my todo list but other things keep jumping in ahead.

    Basically I had a fork of Gadgetbridge which did it but in order to push the navigation images it changes some things I wasn't happy pushing back into the main repo immediately - but then it seems a lot of the message handling in Gadgetbridge got refactored and that broke all my changes - the same notification from Google maps got given a different ID every time it updated :(

    I was hoping we might have some success with https://codeberg.org/Freeyourgadget/Gadgetbridge/issues/2387 but while I thought that hooked into an OSMAnd API I think it actually required a special OSMAnd build - and it's not like many folks use that for navigation anyway!

    My current plan is just to add some code to parse the Google Maps notifications inside Gadgetbridge and pull out the needed information, then to push that to the Bangle. It should be relatively inoffensive and easy to contribute to Gadgetbridge - although it's likely to need contributions from non-english speaking countries to ensure it can parse the data correctly.
