Saving GPS Coordinates in Contacts

[kylemcgee]

Hello -

I live in Oman which has few registered Google addresses. So, I would like to save GPS coordinates in my contact book so I can just press on a contact to call up the appropriate map.

I have tried saving GPS coordinates in the address field (e.g. 23.601339,58.40806), but it also requires the country name which then renders the coordinates useless.

Any way around this? It seems like it should be a pretty easy thing to do..

Thanks in advance for your help!

Kyle
