When using the location picker there are several options available to configure the location picker to suit your needs. Below are an explaination of all of the properties:
what3words search - This functionality enables the use of what3words to help users locate certain positions on the map. They can also place the pin down without it auto-relocating to the nearest UPRN.
Default to home address - If the user has an address attributed to their account, the location picker will default the marker on the home address. This, of course, can be moved to the user's liking.
