I want to generate a link with a gps position so that, when clicked, Osmand opens and shows the location, similar to http://maps.google.com/?q=latitude,longitude, but it should open in the app so that the offline maps are used.
Is this possible?

update question:
I am facing a problem when using google map flutter.
Normally in the google map application, the current position will be displayed with a blue dot and trimmed beam, but in google_maps_flutter, it will display a blue dot and an arrow indicating the direction of the compass. currently when i rotate my phone the beam on google maps app moves in the direction of the phone but the arrow on the app using google_maps_flutter doesn't move or moves very slow and wrong direction. everyone can test it with the example of google maps flutter below. Has anyone encountered this problem can give me advice or a keyword to solve. Thank you everyone for reading.
if anyone wants to try can pull directly from google_maps_flutter example. Install on device -> settings -> enable GPS permission -> open app -> user interface -> mylocation marker. tks
link git hub example:

blue and compass arrow in google_map_flutter
blue dot and the beam that indicates in Google Maps application
This button is provided by the Google Maps Flutter plugin directly. I think, it is there for compatibility reasons and it does not play well with other widgets wich are overlapping the map and it is not customizable, as far as I know.
My suggestion is to disable this button and use your own buttons to control the GoogleMaps widget. Use Floating Action Buttons for example.
I am building an app that uses frontal camera to track where user is looking at the screen. When user blinks, smartphone registers that as a tap. Currently it works "inside" my app. I have a few dots around the screen, when i look at one of them and blink, it changes color.
But how can I make it work on the home screen/with other apps? Say if user looked at the facebook app, blinked, it would open.
I was thinking of a pop up window like Skype. I could design it as a cursor and it would be displayed above the home screen and all apps. But if i would blink(tap) it would perform an action inside that popup/widget and not click "through" it.
Are there any codes that can make my app interact with other apps. Maybe Accessibility services?
There is a similar app that can create a mouse on the homescreen, when user waves his hand (no physical touch) it registers that as a tap. How can I recreate that?

Please forgive me if this question sounds like clearing Safari cache/cookies in General->Settings.
The issue is as follows:
We have a custom webpage where user can upload his profile icon/image by choosing from Phone's photo library or taking a photo.
The 1st time user uploads an image P1, it's uploaded successfully to server.
If user refreshes the webpage and tries to upload a different image P2, P1 is uploaded to server.
Problem persists even after clearing browser cache.
If I kill browser and clear cache, then I'll be able to upload a new image.
This problem does not occur on browsers on Google devices or on PC.
Somehow iPhone browser remembers the image object and I need to find a way to clear it.
Launch the Settings app from the Home screen of your iPhone or iPad.
Scroll down and tap on Safari.
Now scroll all the way to the bottom and tap on Advanced.
Tap on Website Data. Notice here you can see how much space on your iPhone or iPad website data is taking up.
Scroll to the bottom again and tap on Remove All Website Data.
Confirm one more time you'd like to delete all data.

I'm making an app using unity and vuforia extension. When app will recognize an image it should show a button above it and, when the user presses it, I want to display a photo gallery. Is there a way to make this button trigger showing another UIView? Or show another app?
Yes, you can definitely do this. There are resources out there that will teach you how to create a plugin where you can launch an external UIView. For example: http://forum.unity3d.com/threads/56755-Unity-plugin-to-handle-loading-native-Cocoa-UI-s-with-ease
Also, you can open another app using Apple's URL scheme, described here:

I would like to use or emulate a button like the gps button in the bottom left corner of the standard maps application on the iphone OS. The button behaves like a toggle button where gps is enabled or disabled depending on whether it is pushed and it may hold a small spinner component while the gps is finding your position.
Does anyone know if this component can be easily constructed using default components? If no, what would be the best way to develop such a component?
Is the crosshair/target icon a generic icon that I can re-use?
The button is just an image, you should be able to recreate it.
In order to do the tracking, I would look at this sample code: http://developer.apple.com/iphone/library/samplecode/LocateMe/index.html
It shows you how to get the GPS coordinates, then you can feed that data into a MKMapView.
Apple's Spinner Button is hidden, but can be used with systemButton: 100
