Hello everyone,

i wanted to know how to add marker on a map? right now, i am trying to build an application that shows the persons current location, and i can follow it. but the problem is i don't have a pointer, so the changing is vague. what i want is to show the persons location with a marker(e.g some kind of bubble) and follow it. can some one help?

thanx

You mean you're looking for an app that logs someone's - who is on, say, Latitude - route e.g. every few minutes and displays that sequence on a map (ideally with timestamps)?


Souns like job for Tasker.


Or do you want to just manually add varying markers on a map?
