Local Driver
One of the biggest benefits for me is accountability. If there are ever questions about routing or whether I was directed correctly, I can review my actual path and have clear documentation. That gives me confidence when discussing routes with dispatch or management.
I also like reviewing my day at the end of my shift. It gives me insight into how I’m being utilized as a driver, how efficient my routing was, and helps me stay oriented while I’m working. It’s almost like a daily performance snapshot.
The only improvement I would suggest is making the route tracking more precise so it follows the road exactly. Sometimes the line appears slightly off the roadway, and a tighter GPS match would make it even better.
Overall, it’s a very useful and practical app that I rely on regularly.

Daniel, thank you so much for taking the time to write this and for explaining how you use Breadcrumbs day to day. I am really glad it has become part of your routine. For the precision issue, please make sure the Location Precision setting is set to Best, which should help the track stick closer to the road.
Excellent!
Significantly it also provides an export function which allows for backup should it be required.
I use it for (Australian) outback travel which is invaluable when travelling in remote areas.

heolesgyn, I am happy to hear you like the new export feature! Appreciate your kind words!
Don’t Waste Your Time
I have a small Garmin GPS but i wanted something I could use on my phone, so trust me, this is not it…..They have a long way to go….
Maybe one day they’ll get it right, but right now its not looking so good

Hi harleyh0 - thank you for taking the time to leave feedback, even if your experience was frustrating. I want to be upfront about what Breadcrumbs is and isn't, because I think there may have been a mismatch in expectations. Breadcrumbs is a passive location history app - it records where you've been throughout your day, automatically and in the background. Think of it as a personal map diary rather than a real-time navigation tool. The numbered points you saw connected by lines represent your actual path, logged without any effort on your part. If you were looking for turn-by-turn breadcrumb navigation or a continuous real-time trail, you're right that Breadcrumbs isn't that - and I'm sorry the description didn't make that clearer upfront. That's on me, and I've since updated the app description to better explain what the app actually does. If you ever want to give it another try knowing what it's designed for, I'd love to hear what you think. And if you have any questions, I'm always reachable at breadcrumbs [AT] devsincloud [DOT] com.
Great App

Why ALWAYS allow location?
Response from developer
BigCatBill, Thank you for your feedback. I appreciate every one I get. The purpose of the application is to collect your location when in the background. The app description in the app store clearly states that. Only then you will get the full intended functionality. Having said that, you indeed can have it set to while using only. The application is not forcing you in any way to allow it for the background. If you select while using only, the application will record your location only "while using", that is, when it is in the foreground. Please let me know if this helps. If it does, please, consider increasing your rating to more than one star. Thank you!
one of my favorite apps, great for traveling

Thank you for your feedback jetstrike! I am pleased to say that the feature to increase the frequency/accuracy of location points collection is now available in settings (subscription required)!
Almost perfect.
(We understand that that will consume battery, however we can simply plug the power cable in to resolve that.)
