Did you figure this out yet? Is it not possible on a smart phone?

Yeah… Saw the link but I didn’t know what the word “deprecated” meant, I thought the meaning of that sentence was the opposite of what it is.
I’m not a native english speaker… Sorry 
Hi, I do apologize, the software can’t do that yet.
I will implement this functionality tomorrow, user will be able to update it in a similar fashion to changing a password - you will receive a link to change it to your email address ( if you provided any - if you didn’t, let me know and I will assign it in the software ).
Web client should receive an update too!

Hi, I unfortunatelly didn’t managed to get everything done as the UI work took me significantly longer than I expected, so the major update will be postponed.
What I can show you though is the new web client: https://map.esk8.xyz/next/ It’s a complete rewrite of the original client to Angular with a completely new UI. It’s still missing a few core features and you may encounter some bugs - please report them if you find any, feedback is more than welcome.

Hi guys, I’m migrating the esk8 map to a new server with 99.99% SLA. There will be a short downtime until the DNS is fully refreshed around the globe. Sorry for the inconvenience!

Then I should wait for that to go live, to add my self?
I think I added myself to wrong one also
There is no wrong one. The old server has been shut down. If it loads, it’s the new server. It may not load for people that visited it recently as the computers cache old DNS ( domain -> server IP ) records and refresh them only ever so often - reboot usually solved this.

Okay, I’ve installed Chrome and can confirm that the new beta client doesn’t work in it, I will figure this out and include a fix in the next beta release.
Till then, you can use the current stable client at https://map.esk8.xyz.

Hi, as you may’ve noticed, there was no update for a while due to severe lack of time on my side. I made a tough decision to abandon any community projects I run, esk8 map included.
IMPORTANT: domain esk8.xyz ( used for https://map.esk8.xyz ) will expire in 15 days and I won’t be renewing it. If anyone wants the domain, take it. The project will be moved to a subdomain of my main website, I will post a link later.
Feel free to take over the project and import the data from the API.
Publicly available dataset: https://esk8.xyz/api/rider_locations
I will NOT disclose any personal information that people entered ( eg. email ).
If anyone wants to take over the project, I will provide the full source code.
Backend is just a simple Java (Spring Boot) application connected to MySQL spatial database
New frontend ( https://map.esk8.xyz/next ) is written in Angular/TypeScript
Legacy, dirty viewer ( https://map.esk8.xyz ) can be downloaded directly as it’s not compiled.

Just a quick update, like I mentioned before, the domain expired.
As there was very little traffic ( I could count unique monthly visits on fingers of my hands ), it made no sense for me to keep the domain - someone may find a better use for it.
I didn’t wanted to shut down the website, even though it’s no longer maintained, it works and sees some visits so I kept it running but instead of having it’s own TLD, it’s now located at https://esk8map.patrikgajdos.eu.
