Geo Tracker - GPS tracker

Record your GPS tracks during your trips, analyze detailed statistics, and share your adventures with friends! If you're in search of a top-notch GPS tracker that works seamlessly with Open Street Maps or Google, and you enjoy outdoor activities or traveling, Geo Tracker is the perfect app for you!

Geo Tracker can assist you in various ways:

• Finding your way back in unfamiliar areas without getting lost;
• Sharing your route with friends effortlessly;
• Utilizing routes shared by others in GPX, KML, or KMZ file formats;
• Marking significant or interesting points along your journey;
• Locating a specific point on the map if you have its coordinates;
• Showcasing colorful screenshots of your achievements on social networks.

Within the app, you can view your tracks and the surrounding areas using maps from OSM or Google, as well as satellite imagery from Google or Mapbox. This ensures you always have the most detailed map of any area worldwide. The map sections you view are cached on your phone and remain available offline for a period (this feature works best with OSM maps and Mapbox's satellite images). To record and calculate track statistics, only a GPS signal is required; an internet connection is only needed to download map images.

While driving, you can enable navigation mode, where the map automatically rotates in the direction of travel, making navigation much simpler.

The application can record tracks in the background (on many devices, this may require additional system configuration - please be cautious! Instructions for these settings are available within the app). Power consumption in background mode is optimized, allowing your phone's battery to last for a full day of recording on average. There's also an economy mode that you can activate in the app settings.

Geo Tracker calculates a variety of statistics, including:

• Distance traveled and total recording time;
• Maximum and average speed on the track;
• Time and average speed while in motion;
• Minimum and maximum altitude, along with altitude difference;
• Vertical distance, ascent, and climbing speed;
• Minimum, maximum, and average slope.

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

Recorded tracks can be saved as GPX, KML, and KMZ files, making them compatible with other popular applications like Google Earth or Ozi Explorer. Tracks are stored locally on your device and are not transferred to any servers.

The app does not rely on ads or personal data for revenue. To support the ongoing development of the project, you can make a voluntary donation within the application.

Here are some useful tips and tricks to address common GPS issues with your smartphone:

• When starting tracking, wait a moment for the GPS signal to be found.
• Restart your smartphone and ensure you have a clear view of the sky before starting (avoid high buildings, forests, etc.).
• Be aware that reception conditions can vary due to factors like weather, season, satellite positioning, areas with poor GPS coverage, high buildings, forests, etc.
• Go to your phone's settings, select "Location," and activate it.
• In your phone's settings, go to "Date & Time" and enable "Automatic date & time" and "Automatic time zone." Incorrect time zones can delay GPS signal acquisition.
• Ensure airplane mode is deactivated in your phone settings.

If these tips and tricks do not resolve your issues, consider uninstalling and reinstalling the app.

Note that Google Maps uses not only GPS data but also additional data from surrounding WLAN networks and/or mobile networks to determine your location.
