Pictures Near Me shows photos taken around your current location, or anywhere else in the world you search for!
View the pictures full size, and see where the photo was taken in relation to you on a map.
Pictures Near Me is great if you want to discover interesting things near your home or when on vacation - if you've used the iOS Flickr Photo Map app, this is similar!

The application also offers a 'daydream' screensaver (on supported devices, Android 4.2 or newer)

This release currently searches Flickr, but more services should be added in future releases. If you have any feature requests or problems/crashes, please mail me as it's hard to monitor comments here.

You can tweak the search settings for age of pictures, distance from your location, and ordering (such as date taken, distance, interestingness).

Permissions explained:
----------------------
Modify External Storage: For caching the full size images you view. Delete the cache from the settings screen.

Your location: For finding your location to get relevant
pictures

Network Communication: So the application can download images.

Prevent phone from sleeping: You can set the screen to stay on when viewing the map tab - set this option in the settings screen.

Q&A:
---------------------
- Some of the images aren't from near me at all?
This can happen if the photo owner incorrectly geotagged their picture. If it bothers you, visit the photo page with the flickr button, and let the owner know!

- None of the images are from near me, but are from somewhere I was earlier?
This can happen if your location hasn't updated (no GPS fix, outdated network location). Try hitting the refresh button.

-The app crashes?
Please let me know- ideally with a logcat output and details of your device/version. I'll try to work it out...
