The pin
A pretty path is not proof the knock hit the door
You feel it when the map shows a line through the neighborhood and Friday still cannot say which doors were real. What is a gps breadcrumb trail is the path product other desks sell. On this desk the visit is the proof. 36 pins with time and place beat a drawn line that never touched a door. A knock not at the door is unverified.
Time
The visit writes when it happened. A path with no door time is still a story.
Place
The visit writes where the phone was. Inside the radius, default 100 meters, it is verified.
Unverified
Outside that radius the visit still saves, with a badge. It is not deleted to make the map look clean.
