OW Mobile - Request for feature


 

I am not sure if it because I'm doing something wrong in OW or if OW Mobile isn't providing what I want, but I would like the app to display the site name of the location I choose to observe from rather than what seems to be my search site location.

Example: I normally keep the search site set to my home location, but when ever there is an event that will travel too, I select it off the site selection in 'right mouse click' menu. But the app doesn't display that site name in the details, rather it shows my name and the word Home. I'm not sure where it is getting that from. I have over 20 sites stored as possible observing locations and when i open an event OW Mobile I would like to know where I planned to observe from, otherwise I'll have to go back into OW on my PC and check.

Hi Vince,

Is this iOS and Andrdoid app?

Can you provide a screenshot demonstrating the problem (On the majority of Android devices, you can press the volume down button and the power button together to take a screenshot.) and a specific event so I can look at it.

When you open an event, for example the below "Pavlov H Home (AU)", would be the actual name of the station you have submitted which should be different for your different locations.

Are you referring to this screen or a different screen? The list of events does not show the site names at the moment.

Hristo.
