On the web app, it would be especially useful if you could label a point based on a field. That way, you could see the various points from the map view itself. Often, we work in remote locations, and the points, when visualized this way, would allow me to see the path. Currently, they only show up as a dot in full map view. Split view is helpful, but still doesn't reference the actual location on the map until you click on it.

Hi John,
Great news, you can do this today!
First, set the Title field in the app by following these instructions: https://help.fulcrumapp.com/en/articles/75252-what-is-a-title-field
The title field will automatically display in web on hover (hover over the list item in list view and it will show the label or hover over the location in the map view and it will show there).
Mobile apps can also display these- turn on 'Show Pin Labels' in the Map Settings.

Hi Kara Fox , this is useful when you're using the web on hover but it doesn't allow me to see all the pins without scrolling over each of them. One way I use fulcrum is to show the location of different objects in relation to property lines.
It would be especially useful if I could show the client through a screenshot the labels for each item. As you can see in the example below, it's just dots which the end user would have no way of understanding what each one actually is. In this case, each point represents an individual tree. The client wants to know if the tree is in or out. Clearly four are in. But which 4? A label visible for each would be a wonderful advancement.
