Description

Original Slack Post: https://merginmaps.slack.com/archives/C02BTUKJQ0H/p1663590720733029

Possible Suggestion: Use the continuous recording of a line feature via holding down the GPS button. Once this is activated, then there could be a feature allowing one to capture a single GPS point without having to fill any forms in, and avoid, "Record", "Add Point", "Save".

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by locating the GPS button and continuous line-recording flow, then determine how a single point could bypass the current Record, Add Point, and Save steps. Done would mean a clear, implemented interaction for capturing one GPS point without forms.
