Is anybody working on implementing geolocation API on Near Me Widget?  Geolocation will be a great tool when people use mobile devices to locate nearby facilities.

Hi City of Columbia GIS,

Technically you can take a reference from My Location Widget .js file to implement this Class: 

"esri/dijit/LocateButton"

LocateButton | API Reference | ArcGIS API for JavaScript 3.20 into Near Me widget 

The LocateButton has already implement the HTML5 Geolocation API

Hope this can help.

Is there any near future plan that you will include Geolocation on Near Me Widget?  I am not a programmer to customize the existing widget.

Thanks,
