<p dir="auto">Yes, like how it's done on every social media app, even GitHub does it although not as detailed. You just type country, state/province, county, city or click the location button to do it all for you. That means users could be granular in how precise they want to be (by omitting city field for example) and also have the option for users to display that location directly on their profile making the feature useful outside of the quite frankly useless hyper-local "Other nearby users" dashboard.</p>
