The following video is an example of an animated heat map that has been combined with video extracted from "Live Photos" (quickly edited together with the LumaFusion app) You will need a Google Maps API Key. You can get one here or try "developer mode" by using it without a key. This is a large shortcut so you might want to learn how to use the new scroll features on iOS 13 to make installation quicker. Additional documentation is available in the shortcut. Screen shots Tips: Heat maps work best with a large number of photos in a small geographic area. Try limiting your search with GPS coordinates. It's faster and more accurate than using city and location names. Reporting bugs: Email me at [email protected] or send me a message on Reddit.
