Android app spins forever adding observation if GPS is turned off

Probably not a super common use case, but if you have GPS off and want to add an observation in the Android app, you can’t enter a location because it spins forever waiting to get one from the system. I would instead expect it to throw an error or maybe have a time out.

as a workaround, you can still create the observation without a location first and then go back and edit it to add the location.

Same happened with me just yesterday, also had to upload without location and edit later.
