Description

When I'm in the Nearby screen and I tap on the bubble to go to an article, then go back to the Nearby screen (via the menu on the bottom bar) it sends me back to the default location instead of returning to where I previously was on the map. If I'm exploring an area I'm likely to tap an article, go back to the map, tap a different article, go back to the map, etc. It is painful to have to re-navigate to the spot (especially if I am, for example, looking around the Boston Commons for my hypothetical trip next week).

I've something in a branch (https://github.com/yuvipanda/WikipediaMobile/tree/load-last-position) that makes the user always go to the last position he was seeing - but then there is no way what so ever to actually take the user to their current location. Needs some UI love. Potentially bumping to 1.2.

I'd recommend:

keep the last-seen position during a session when going back to the view
add a button for 'go to current location' that re-does the GPS

We might want to fiddle with the zoom buttons too, their location is awkward (interferes with some of the popups).

Thanks for the note. Resolving as this was cut against a deprecated code base.
