Is ther a way to position the map view port to the user location when screen initalize? I tryed “pan to user location” when screen initialize. And I tryed set center to string user lon/langitude.

Yeah, is there a bloch “when gps connected” or something like that?

There is a propierty that says something like hasLatitudeLongitude. It’s a boolean value.

You can do somethimg like…

if(gps.haslatitudlongitud){
pan(lat,lon)
}

if in doubt, just check the documentation…

gps is enabled, if the property ProviderName of the location sensor contains the string gps, see also the example “Get Available SSIDs” here App Inventor Extensions: WiFi | Pura Vida Apps
