i’ve never seen anyone build a garmin app with codex, so i built one!
it’s superlocal’s fog of world on your bike computer. ride somewhere new and the fog clears, revealing more of your map. your percent of world explored automatically syncs with superlocal on iphone.
this new @superlocalmaps feature is really fun:
it looks at your check-in history + timeline data and instantly builds a map of places you’d probably like within a 1 hour drive
basically: a personalized map for your next little adventure
our Map App features has been one of our most successful new feature-sets we've ever launched - and now we are cranking out tons of new apps!
a fun new one is the Aurora map! it'll show you where the aurora is visible today and you can even get a notification if it'll be visible nearby
notifications are a big next step in this... since i think it's low hanging fruit for a big retention win (e.g. "there's a whale nearby!" if you have whale tracker on)
i really like this new "under an hour" map app that's coming on the next Superlocal update!
it takes your fog of world + check-in history and instantly finds places you’d probably love within a 1 hour drive.
basically a quick, personalized map for "where should i go today?"
Superlocal is quickly becoming one map that can turn into any map
a map for place discovery, history learning, whale tracking, earthquakes, or whatever else you want to explore
the next app update brings us to 20+ apps, including earthquake tracking 🫨
just added another fun feature to Superlocal!
after you finish your check-ins, you can enter "fly-by mode" and replay your day on a 3D @mapbox map
or zoom out and watch your fog of world clear from an aerial view
feels like a tiny cinematic recap of everywhere you went
just shipped a big update to AI Place Search on Superlocal!
your results are now even more personalized to you, with a new “why this place” reason shown for each recommendation
the more you check in, save places, and let your timeline grow, the more Superlocal starts to understand what you actually like
i don’t think enough people realize Swarm is actively being worked on again
just added a new heatmap feature that shows what’s “swarming” nearby, plus some really fun new visualizations of your check-ins on the map
feels like the beginning of a much more alive Swarm
we just shipped another new map app in superlocal that feels weirdly interesting!
using @Foursquare data, we made a “closed places” map layer
now you can open the map and see all the places nearby that used to exist
ghosts of restaurants, bars, coffee shops, stores, and old routines 👻
