 ## How does it work?
 Every 25 seconds all nearby users will be received with [TDLib](https://core.telegram.org/tdlib) from Telegram. This includes the distance of every nearby user to "my" location. With three distances from three different points, it is possible to calculate the position of the nearby user.
 
-This only works if the users have activated the nearby feature inside Telegram. Per default it is deactivated.

 6. Look carefully at the output: you will need to confirm your Telegram login

-Linux users: you will need to compile TDLib yourself and put it into the lib/tdlib folder.
+## Dependencies
+To avoid that you have to build TDLib yourself (https://github.com/tdlib/td#building), I added [tdlib.native](https://github.com/ForNeVeR/tdlib.native/releases) in the lib/tdlib folder. Please note that this is an external dependency that has not been fully reviewed by me!
