Bot Profile/Flow Changes

Business Objective:

We've realized via User Testing that many users keep thinking of apps: Instagram and Yelp when they provide us with feedback. Due to our current "UI look" we would like to avoid having our users "pigeon-hole" us within the realms of Instagram and Yelp, thus, branding-wise we'd like to differentiate ourselves by providing a more "location-based" look and feel. That is why, we'll have to implement these changes before launch.

REQs

At an extremely zoomed in view, the pin should sit just above the address
The bot pin should move just like it does today, the "+" is nothing else but UI it has no interaction
Implement a static header (so users actually know what they're doing in this flow)
Redesign the map input to become full bleed
Redesign "Cover Photo" UI, map can be static, does not need to move or be interactive but should resemble the location chosen
Render City and State for US and City and Country for Non US (expands two lines??? @alan???)

REQs:

Need to remove image count
Need animations (for map & photo enarglement), need map view
Reposition a new share icon at the bottom
Enable new ellipsis icon
Enable action sheet per ellipsis (maybe this should happen first before blocking and reporting)
Render City and State for US and City and Country for Non US (expands two lines??? @alan???)
If user taps on map area, map fully expands (animation? @alan) perhaps by sliding down or appears
Enable subscriber count
Enable distance calculation

Outstanding Issues/Questions

With the new nav, how much effort is it to enable a header that animates in (opacity change) as the user scrolls down? If the effort is too high, we can keep the header static, however, it is preferred not to do so.
