On the Home screen, the Map tab is a powerful tool to know where you need to be.

EventR has a fully featured Map which can be used to visualise your itineraries, showing you where your activities are taking place, your accommodation, where your fellow users are and much more.

There are small numbers in red circles for each activity, displaying the order in which the user will be doing them. As a default anything beyond 3 is faded out, so you can focus on what's next. This can be adjusted using the cog Settings icon. Left hand side full screens the map.
Please note Activities can stack, tapping on them will show what is happening at that location. This also leads to discontinuities in the numbering, as various things through an itinerary can be happening on that spot.
Tapping on an address will take you out into Apple/Google Maps to that location. There is also a copy button to put the address on your clipboard.
Filtering the Itinerary on the Map
Some itineraries contain too much information, so we have added filters to them. They can be accessed by the Cog icon on the top right.

Public items enables the toggling of all items marked as "Public". This can create clutter, so we now allow you to turn it off!
At the bottom there are three other options:
- Show Team Members - toggle the display of any team members that have chosen to share their location (see below).
- Fade Later Events - the next 3 event locations are shown solid, subsequent activities are shown transparent. This helps to see what's important on a cluttered map. Disabled shows everything solid.
- Time Filter - show everything, future, or past events.
Share Your Location
Bottom left allows the user to share their location on the map to every other team member. This has various times allowing the user control how long they are shown. It requires the OS Level Permissions to read your location to do this. Finally, the final bottom right cycles through different views of the map.

Using an address outside of EventR

Addresses in the app can be opened externally. On iOS you can choose Apple Maps, Google Maps or Waze, and on Android Google Maps or Waze.
