Good for backtrack

I like being able to see my whole journey after traveling it’s a fun tool

GPS trails

Great to to log all sorts of GPS trails you can save the history of them in the database. Then you can share that with someone with an external link if you want pretty handy.

Geo Awesome

OK, this is sweet. You drop a little crime at Senner Falls and it has Geo time date stamps all over the map and then you can share that map via the cloud to anyone by texting them a link this is seriously super handy.

Fixed finally

New version fixed. Works nice. Share trails, export lat long, pick your own delimiter. Save history of geo trails. Nice.

Works, but not useful —

it seems the app works only when it is active on the screen. It does not continue to drop bread crumbs when running in the background, or if the screen is off, or if another app is on screen.
