tdf-pl / takwatch Goto Github PK

Having trouble installing TakWatch plugin. Downloaded apk, and ran installer, but it does not show up in ATAK. Any advise on where to look next?

I don't know how hard this would be to implement but would it be possible for the plugin to let ATAK use the Garmin watch as a external GPS source? Strange as it may seem I have found these watches perform better in urban environments than my phone's GPS.

As proposed for the TAKWatch - IQ TDF-PL/TAKWatch-IQ#5 (comment)

Maybe as "automated idea" is to be able to share the tak server information to provide the stand alone side of the watch to be able to connect to the tak server when the watch is not connected to the phone.

Hugely appreciate the development of this, will it be published to the Play Store at some point? (Looking to install it onto a corporate device that has side-loading disabled)

All of the githubs supported devices are not on the Garming supported devices list

Epix Pro Gen 2 for example, is there a way to get it working on it somehow? Or is this problem with Garmin side?

Hello, there is a problem with synchronization of custom markers.
For example if you try to place marker with infantry type it will be ignored by the plugin and wont sync with watches.
I think there is nice to add all types of standard markers for sync. Or parse em as a general markers, like convert it from ATAK ifantry type for ex. to ground in watch.
