Field notes
Search settings distinguish a whole-city scan from a more detailed search of the visible map area or a nearby location. The help text gives rough mobile search times and explains that switching apps can pause a search, a practical constraint for a tool that runs on-device. It also advises checking routes against satellite maps because OpenStreetMap coverage and street safety may vary.
