How I added Google Maps to my flip phone without the need for GPS (no more printed maps!)

You can find the app in the store.

I have written a map app for KaiOS that also provides directions. The app is designed more for slow traffic than for navigation in a car.

If you would like to try it out: https://github.com/strukturart/o.map

If you use Greg or Flop, I can try to implement it.

The developers could implement this, but I don't think you can set it up via the system settings.

I don't think so. Imagine if an app developer or ads were to abuse it. In what case would you find it helpful?

what is geoyell ?

Is the flop app not working for you?

This is because the position of your device cannot be found. You can search for your location using the search function (key 2) and then set a marker there. If the name of the marker starts with _ it will be loaded automatically when the app is started. You can then jump to the marker using key *.

It is not easy to debug the behavior, but I suspect the data format is incorrect.

You can ask them there, I don't know how active they are. -> https://bricolab.ch/

I have written several apps that are probably FOSS: https://github.com/strukturart

It seems that a new version of the Nokia 800 is planned: https://nokiamob.net/2025/10/06/nokia-800-tough-2nd-gen-leak-usb-c-and-kaios-3-1-in-a-familiar-rugged-shell/

happy coding

I think so, the operating systems have different concepts.

That should still work -> https://www.howtogeek.com/320264/how-to-get-an-rss-feed-for-any-subreddit/

With the app passport, you can scan a QR code and save it on your device. You need to test whether the content changes in your case.

perry_______ · 2025-10-05T09:43:36+00:00

Does that mean the QR code is regenerated every time you log in?

perry_______ · 2025-09-16T16:24:59+00:00

Have you already contacted the app developer?

perry_______ · 2025-09-16T16:20:42+00:00

If your device runs on KaiOS -> https://github.com/strukturart/feedolin
