Add Location Filtering
-
Problem: Users with cameras in multiple locations or with many cameras at one location find it challenging to manage and distinguish between their devices effectively.
Proposed Solution: Implement a location-based filtering system.
Details:- Filter Placement: At the top of the main camera page in the mobile app, there will be location filters such as "All", "Location 1", "Location 2", and so on.
- Usage: Upon selecting a filter, only the cameras assigned to that location would display.
- Configuration: Users can set up locations and assign devices to each location via the "Adjust Device Order" page. Notably, NVRs won't be a standalone location. Users can assign an NVR to any chosen location, accommodating those who possess an NVR alongside cameras not connected to it at the same site.
- Naming: This system refines the camera naming process. For instance, instead of naming cameras "Location 1 Entrance", "Location 2 Entrance" users could have:
- Location 1
- Entrance
- Backyard
- Location 2
- Entrance
- Backyard
- Location 1
Benefits:
- Quicker navigation for users with cameras across many properties or who have many cameras at a single property(they could have locations like "Pool Area", "Garden", etc.).
- A more intuitive naming system.
- Easier management of cameras.
What are your thoughts on this? Are there any plans to implement some kind of location filtering?
