- The radar
For what do you use the Radar?
The radar shows on the map all active Fietsknoop users with a Fietsknoop account. The positions are anonymous. Your own active position is shown in orange.
You can only see other Fietsknoop users on the radar if you have specified in 'Settings' that others can also see your location.
- Following someone on radar
Can someone follow me on radar?
Yes, but only if you give explicit permission to do so. No one can follow you without your knowledge, nor can they follow someone else without their knowledge.
What needs to be done to get someone to follow you?
Make sure you both have a Fietsknoop account with Fietsknoop[+]Plus and that you are Friends of each other (see also video about Friends).
In 'Settings', turn Radar ON.
Cycle or walk your route and turn on the GPS.
On the Radar, your location with name is visible to your Friend.
NB: it may take a while before your location is visible during the route.
- Radar on the route map
While biking or hiking a route, it is possible to go directly to the radar screen to see fellow Fietsknoop users in your area.
Click the Radar button at the bottom right of the screen.
No access to the radar yet? On the 'Settings' screen, under 'Radar settings', specify that others may see your location.
With a Plus account, you can also find your active Friends on the radar.
