Hi everyone ✌️, Walterion is here, and I'm excited to introduce you to Arcane Maps 🗺️, a private and secure alternative for Google Maps. As we keep hearing about data breach news of big companies, it is harder for us to keep trusting them with our personal data, especially our location history. It made us think about finding a better way. We believe the best way to keep data secure is by not having them in the first place. That's why we choose the server-less and encrypted solution with the help of blockchain. We worked on it for months, and now it is ready to share with you. Arcane Maps is a full-featured map service and with it, your identity, location, search history, favorite places and all, will be private and in your control. All safe and secure on blockchain-based cloud storage with high industry standard encryptions. Arcane Maps is available now for Mobile and Desktop right in your browser. It is entirely free with users’ support, so come and join us in our launch. I can’t wait to hear what you think. Please do not hesitate to ask me any questions. Shows you the path without knowing where you are — Arcane Maps P.S. Here is the rest of Arcane Projects if you missed them: Docs, Sheets, Marks, and Photos.

@walterion1 thank you. Does it have a feature like timeline that track the places we visit? I need that feature but to stay private.

@hakan_erdur1 Hey Hakan! Not for now but it will be nice to have it. I added it to our task list.

Nice Map ! I like the overall look... Works smoothly on desktop and mobile ! Some questions though : - Any plan for natives app ? - Do you plan to have an API for third party developers ? - Whats your source ? OpenStreetMap ? - How do you plan to have as much POI as GMaps ? PS : Having some issue on mobile, when I click on the map it goes all the way back to NY, I'm in Paris :-)

@mgs Thank you very much for the comment! - Yes, native apps are under development for Android and then iOS. - No plan for an API for now, but a very interesting idea. - Yes, OpenStreet and Mapbox. - No plans for now. It seems you didn't give the app location permission, so it goes back to the default, NY.

@walterion1 I think I did 🤔 otherwise when I click on the location button on right bottom corner it would not go to where I am I'm guessing. Thanks for the details, I hope it will get the attention it deserves, people don't realise yet how much Google knows about all our moves, it's scary !

@mgs @walterion1 please add API to your product roadmap, there will be a lot of users for that.

@michal_sastinsky Hey again Michal, sure we have it on the roadmap 👍

@walterion1 your products look amazing! I will definitely be trying this and the photos. One thing I wish was present is displaying the search results on the map. Currently, if I search Supermarket it shows me a list of places but I don't really know where they are and I would have to check every single one to find the closest to me.

@duiker101 Lovely words, thanks! This is a very cool idea, Simone, allow me to add it to the todo list. Please dont forget to support the Arcane apps, especially Maps
Lui Kohl
@walterion1 Wow, are you the hardest working man on PH? Very cool. One thing I noticed, the directions do not display the steps required on transport for example. A more general question, are you continuing to develop the other products (for eg. Docs)? Because I think they are a great start but to really become a viable alternative to G suite they would need to continue to improve. Take my upvote and good luck!

@lui_kohl Hey Lui, you are very kind 😸 I am checking what you said, thanks for the note. Yes be sure we do, they got minor fixes this month to improve stability and will get more features soon. There is a long way to compete with billion-dollar companies, but we are doing this one step at a time, thanks to the support of friendly people like you.

@walterion1 Also for that feedback, OSX FF v69. Do you have a website for the 'company' behind all these products?
Walterion
Maker
@lui_kohl Sorry but I don't get "OSX FF v69" and no for now.
Lui Kohl
@walterion1 Just that it didn't work for me on OSX Firefox version 69. ;)
Walterion
Maker
@lui_kohl Checked it, and it seems working just fine, can you DM me more detail?
Vladimir Nesterenko

@walterion1 Happy to hear :) We're also working on a web app and using Open Street, it's been really helpful, even more than the big G 🙊
