Step 1: Bubble database & GPS tracker plugin
Additional Notes
There are two general methods to track a device’s location: IP address and GPS location. This tutorial will cover the latter one showing how to get the GPS coordinates.
Step 2: Getting and saving GPS coordinates
Additional Notes
The plugin won’t get the GPS data on Apple mobile devices using Safari. It will work with Chrome though.
Step 3: Coordinates to geographic address
Additional Notes
The geographic address can be stored in the database by adding a ‘Make changes to current user’ workflow. We’d only need to create a ‘Location’ field of ‘Geographic address’ type.
