Location Tracker

Of all the mapping/tracking apps I've downloaded, this is the one I turn to. I'm a nerd who loves the outdoors & playing with maps and this app does almost everything I'd want. Simple, easy to use, great charts (I really like the way it labels the charts - makes it very easy to read), usage flows cleanly between the various features. Contrary to one of the other reviews, this app does continue to collect data if I switch to another app. It's very cool that I get to choose the map source - either Google or Nokia! All that's missing is for the offline Nokia maps to include topographical data - hopefully Nokia will fix that.

Great app! Can export gpx files!

I just love playing with this app! I use it on every hike to track where we currently are and then revisit the hike at home over and over again. Often when contemplating our next hike, I go back to my previously saved tracks to check out time, distance and elevation for planning purposes. The new charting of elevation or speed verses time or distance is very cool. I even play with this app to track our progress while flying - although the phone will sometimes lose the GPS mid-flight, but that is not this app's fault.

Does as it says on the tin, works good so far. Please allow the user to choose which folder on the phone to save the gpx files, SkyDrive integration is nice but with 8.1 and file management and ability to upload from browser it'll be cool to have access to the files

Works great with one major flaw. While using the program to track your location, the use of any other program can shut down the tracking program. You will either have to start it again or leave it stopped. If you keep turning it on and having it shut down by use of another program, you end up with multiple tracks. This can make it extremely difficult to try and map any hike or trail traveled. If this bug was fixed, I'd give it a 6 star rating!
