Sharing Your Geo-Location Data and the Importance of Compensation

  In today’s digital age, location data has become a precious commodity. For MapMetrics, it is the backbone of our web3 navigation app , and it’s generated by the GPS system in your smartphone and SPT device. This data provides rich information about your movements, behavior, and preferences. Sadly, most individuals are unaware that they are sharing it. Until now, there hasn’t been an effort to compensate people for their data. Let's take a look at the importance of compensation when it comes to sharing geo-location data. Ownership: People generate a vast amount of geo-location data through the use of their smart devices.

  With the rebuild of the MapMetrics   crypto navigation app , we’re going to introduce night mode. Night mode is a popular setting in numerous navigation apps at the moment, and for good reason. With its dark color palette and reduced brilliance, night mode is designed to make it  easier and safer  to use our navigation app in low-light conditions. In this blog article, we will explore some of the benefits of using night mode in our navigation app and why it’s an important feature for anyone who uses a navigation app for driving at night. Reduced Eye Strain One of the main benefits of using night mode in a navigation app is reduced eye strain. By reducing the quantum of blue light emitted from the device,  night mode  makes it easier on the eyes when using the app at night. This can help eye fatigue and reduce the threat of headaches and other eye-related issues that can affect dragged use of electronic bias. Bettered Visibility The darker color palette of night mode can also ease vis
