My first successful launch of @CoMaps's Android app on Linux, via #AndroidTranslationLayer! I previously tried using CoMaps with Waydroid, but Waydroid does not support GPS.

Very broken right now, but I got it to at least launch after two days of debugging / relearning Java syntax. Hopefully eventually this means I can use it on my #postmarketOS phone!

A very broken CoMaps window. At the top is a header bar with five icons and the text CoMaps, at the bottom are four empty buttons, at the center is a dialog requesting me to enable Location Services, and on the bottom right are zoom controls and a GPS button.
The map is not rendered, and there is a beige square at the bottom-left that is probably supposed to be the map. — A very broken CoMaps window.

@pi_crew indeed, I really miss having navigation!

Waydroid doesn't support location, and the two native apps I tried just freeze my phone after a few seconds :p

I hear OsmAnd works in ATL, if you want to try it. I'm fairly motivated to get CoMaps running as I could import all my stuff from my old phone.
