Geo Tracker - GPS tracker

Embark on your adventures with confidence using Geo Tracker, the ultimate GPS tracker app designed for enthusiasts of outdoor activities and travel. Whether you're exploring new territories or revisiting favorite spots, Geo Tracker allows you to record GPS tracks of your trips, analyze comprehensive statistics, and share your experiences with friends. Compatible with both Open Street Maps and Google, this app is your go-to solution for all your tracking needs.

Geo Tracker offers a variety of features to enhance your journey:

• Find your way back in unfamiliar areas without the risk of getting lost.
• Share your routes with friends, making it easy for them to follow in your footsteps.
• Import routes from GPX, KML, or KMZ files to explore paths others have taken.
• Mark significant or intriguing waypoints along your route.
• Locate specific points on the map using known coordinates.
• Showcase vibrant screenshots of your achievements on social media platforms.

With Geo Tracker, you can view your tracks and the surrounding terrain using maps from OSM or Google, along with satellite imagery from Google or Mapbox. This ensures you have the most detailed and up-to-date maps available, anywhere in the world. The areas you explore are cached on your device, allowing you to access them offline for a period of time (this feature works particularly well with OSM maps and Mapbox satellite images). To record and compute track statistics, only a GPS signal is required; internet access is needed solely for downloading map images.

Enhance your driving experience with the navigation mode, which automatically rotates the map to align with your direction of travel, simplifying your navigation efforts.

Geo Tracker is designed to operate efficiently in the background on many devices, although this may require additional system settings configuration (detailed instructions are provided within the app). The app's power consumption is optimized for background mode, typically allowing a full day of recording on a single charge. For extended use, activate the economy mode available in the app settings.

The app meticulously calculates a range of statistics for your tracks, including:

• Total distance traveled and recording duration.
• Maximum and average speed throughout the track.
• Time spent in motion and average speed during movement.
• Minimum and maximum altitude, as well as altitude differences.
• Vertical distance, ascent rate, and climbing speed.
• Minimum, maximum, and average slope.

Additionally, detailed charts of speed and elevation data are available for a thorough analysis of your journey.

Your recorded tracks can be saved in GPX, KML, and KMZ formats, making them compatible with other popular applications such as Google Earth or Ozi Explorer. These files are stored locally on your device and are never transmitted to external servers.

Geo Tracker does not rely on advertising or personal data for revenue. Support the ongoing development of the project by making a voluntary donation through the app.

To ensure optimal GPS performance with your smartphone, consider these helpful tips and tricks:

• Allow some time for the GPS signal to lock on when you start tracking.
• Restart your smartphone and ensure you have an unobstructed view of the sky before beginning (avoid areas with tall buildings, dense forests, etc.).
• Be aware that GPS reception can vary due to factors like weather, season, satellite positioning, and areas with poor GPS coverage.
• Activate the "Location" setting on your phone.
• Set your phone's "Date & Time" settings to automatic date, time, and time zone to avoid delays in GPS signal acquisition due to incorrect settings.
• Ensure airplane mode is turned off in your phone settings.

If these suggestions do not resolve your GPS issues, try uninstalling and reinstalling the app. Keep in mind that Google Maps uses not only GPS data but also additional location data from surrounding Wi-Fi networks and mobile networks for enhanced accuracy.
