2.4.1 f-droid

I started running AirGuard about 24h ago. I have about 50 records now. Many of them have locations. Some of them do not. When I click to locate those, I just get the current-location blue dot.

I'm not sure what's going on; it might be that when initiating a scan AirGuard doesn't wait long enough for a location.

It would be nice to at least clarify in the readme/faq (and sorry if I missed this).

It would be nice to somehow indicate which ones have coordinates and which don't.

It might be that "apple device" not believed to be a tracker, is intended not to record coordinates, but so far I don't believe that. But as this is sort of a wardriving app too, I would prefer that everything that might be useful in understanding behaviors be recorded. (I am coming at this with a background as a network researcher.)
