      What about a module that shows a map with the GPS location of all the family members?

        @teitlebot - I have a module idea that would use this information. It’s on the back burner for now until I finish some other projects. So far, the rough part is getting every family member’s GPS location from their cell phones.

        If you do a search for Weasley Clock (aka Location Clock) then you can see the various ways others have solved this issue. It’s certainly possible.

            Will do. It seems like all the components are there. One of those location clocks had a full walkthrough, including how to hook up the gears. The app for the phone exists, code examples exist, etc. The app includes a free tier of location processing & storage, so it seems like all of the hard stuff has already been done.

            I have one more mirror on my plate before I start work on my Weasley Clock. It should be fairly easy to turn that into a module. Should.
