Community: Forum: Suggestions for HappyCow
HappyCow Site Forum
Hi,
I travel a lot and I often find myself without internet. Furthermore, I cannot use the HappyCow app, since I do not buy into the Google or Apple ecosystem for privacy reasons. It would be great to be able to download the list of places for a city or a region that we could, for instance, visualize with Osmand or any other open source mobile maps.
Before you introduced the Incapsula protection, it was easy to extract the relevant metadata from the HTML results for a query. Now it is impossible, leaving me starving when travelling.
I wonder if you have any interest in providing one of the following:
- Option to download a GPX/KML file for individual cities or regions.
- An API to request data with a hard limit on the number of possible requests per day to protect yourself. Note that this is a different API than the embedding type that was requested before (https://www.happycow.net/forum/happycow/api-for-the-website/2881).
Thank you.
Best,
PSemi
