Originally Installed this app on Nokia 6.1 running Android 10 which has excellent battery life. Noticed the battery running down very quickly (about 1% every 5 minutes with nothing else running!). Stopped the app from Settings, battery still running down fast.. Restarted phone - battery still running down fast. Uninstalled this app, Restarted phone - battery now back to normal consumption - 1% in 1 hour! I have another solution so will not be trying this app again. UPDATE: I did try it again on the recommendation of a friend. There has been an update in the 4 months since I last used it, and it no longer drains my battery as I said above. Furthermore I now find it quite useful alongside other apps when walking. Upgrading from 1 to 4 stars. UPDATE May 2022 After contacting Support, I was told that "Follow GPS" mode does actually use more battery. I'm not certain how I had that set ORIGINALLY but I've chosen to disable this function. That most certainly saves battery.
Can't figure this app out. I tried to open a downloaded gpx file but needed to give this app access to all files on my phone, and agree that "it can read and modify files without notification". No way am I doing that. As I backed out, the app asked for review. So this is your review as requested
So there is a paid version that also has inapp purchases? And ads? Is there a paid version that is just paid with everything and no third party trackers?
I really love this app. Works great for checking out view maps that show me places to hike, backpack and camp. Thanks
Some minor quirks with the file browser (keeps asking for permission). Otherwise very nice.
Very good for me come in handy on coach trip to strange towns don't get lost.???can find my way through housing estate s.
The position was often incorrect. When compared to google maps, google maps showed a very accurate position at that moment, while this app was at least 100 meters off. It was usefull to look at the route though, but short breaks were required to derive our position from the route.
I loved this tool and upgraded to the Pro version. All was great, then for some reason, the choice of maps got shorter and I lost the cycling-hiking map that contained myriad paths and made for great exploration. What happened? None of the new maps have as much detail. Finding it really hard to locate replacements.
In difficult terrain with no cellural and data connectivity this app isn't accurate i loaded route and added the route to the map, however one significant piece is completely missing The dot does not represent direction - hence good luck in difficult terrain knowing where you are heading to. I suppose if you could add something more meaningful to the position than a dot e.g. arrow, or whatever but not a circle! It can be dangerous to use! Incorporate small compass to the app so one navigate.
Great app for online and offline purposes. I'd like to see a few additional features added in: to be able to search for different waypoints by their icon. Display what the icons mean (if you zoom in close enough). Great work guys, I'll update you as I use it more.
I'm checking this App out for a friend and so far I find it great. As I use a Garmin Montana 610 I have never really found any reason to use this sort of App (and I still don't) but for those who do not have a dedicated GPS handheld, this App seems to cover most of what they might need. Cudos to this App's creators. One thing to think about, it would really make this App stand out, try to add a function that would allow it to read files sent from GPS's with Bluetooth.
I'm sorry guys, only two stars. I tried this app incl. Trackbook because I wanted something that could link between pc en android (planning and using when hiking). I tried the non pro version. There are a lot of restrictions to the non pro version (a bit to limited to try it out in my opinion), but the main reason for the two starts is that the login into Trackbook from my gpx viewer on android simply does not work. I tried it like 10 times. Therefore useless for what I want to use it for.
I haven't explored all the features, but I appreciate the interface and performance. I'm using it to view GPX files from the "GPS Logger" app. I'm going to buy the full version to get offline vector OpenStreetMaps.
easy to use, gets the job done. I tried all the other gpx apps and while this has the most limited set of features, it works reliably, is easy to use, and uses my phone battery the least.
Good app for basic uses. At least with my data I only don't get all my maps info. I get description, and name. It is also too "smart" that it overrides my spoofed GPS data which in my case is a high accuracy external antenna. Basic uses are great however! It can be a bit tricky to get onto.
