For those avid outdoors men or women, a GPS handheld can be as critical and useful as any other tool when hiking, bicycling, walking, or even when using off-road vehicles. With devices like the iPhone now including a GPS chip as a standard feature, users have found so many more possibilities for GPS use.
GPS Tracks turns your iPhone into a fully featured GPS logging and tracking device with the added capability of full use of other apps while still providing full tracking.
GPS Tracks allows live tracking overlaid on Google Maps, including elevation changes for iPhone 3GS and iPhone 4 users. Options include the ability to quickly and easily add waypoints, choose to display measurements in metric or English units, email your track log in the widely adopted GPX file format for easy viewing in a number of location based applications, and choose the GPS accuracy from five different precisions depending on your use. Easily rename and delete any waypoint or track log for better organization and further fine-tuning.
Because
GPS Tracks is continuously logging your progress, even while using another application thanks to iOS 4, device run times will be noticeably reduced. GPS accuracy is dependent on line-of-sight of your iPhone to the GPS satellites. Since its key feature is background GPS tracking,
GPS Tracks requires an iDevice running iOS 4.
