Greetings! Using mobile version 3.0.10(4.9.6.13), on Android Oneplus 6T
I am planning a dive trip at the end of August (I hope!!), and haven't used Subsurface "for real" yet. I've got past dives logged, and now I'm trying to work out how to use the GPS fix. 
Subsurface is picking up my GPS, I can see the GPS fix screen, but reading the user manual, "Two actions are possible for each of the locations, enabled by dragging the right part of a location to the left. This exposes two options. Tapping the dustbin deletes this particular GPS location. Tapping the teardrop-shaped icon (actually a Google Maps pin) opens up Google Maps with a pin indicating the exact map position of the GPS record being viewed. The two above options can be hidden by drawing the GPS record to the right."
I'm not able to drag the location and see the dustbin and teardrop.
See screenshot
What am I missing please?
Thanks! Danila

It's possible that this is no longer working. Frankly, the whole list is mainly a debugging tool.
When you have actual dives and fixes that correspond, all you do is you just "Apply GPS fixes" (under Dive management) and the app should update the locations of those dives for which you have GPS fixes.

I can confirm that I can't swipe on fixes, I have only done it now to test.
This is on a Pixel 2/Android 10, SubSurface 3.0.10(4.9.6.13)

It would be nice to have the option to clean up the list, but otherwise I see the point that it isn't really important.

Kind Regards,
Barnaby

I would also note that you should give your new dive a "Location", save it, *then* "Apply GPS fixes".
Applying the GPS fixes first, then trying to edit the dives and add a "Location" doesn't seem to always work that well.
