## What is LocaToWeb Realtime GPS tracker?

LocaToWeb is a reliable GPS tracker for your phone. Use the app to track your adventures while hiking, running, bicycling, kayakking, road-tripping, motorcycle riding etc. It’s a great tool to record your routes, navigate and take photos. Its also great for following others tracking with the app. 

A key feature is the possibility to share your location and progress with friends and family, let them see your progress on the map, see photos and interact trough messages. Knowing that your loved ones can follow your position and know where you are is a great safety aspect.

The app gives you duration, distance, speed and altitude as well as your exact position and track lines on a map while tracking. Your position is only tracked when a track has been set up and started and lasts until you stop it. 

Tracks are by default private, but you can still share it with friends or publish the web-link that will allow others to see your route and progress on the map.
If you set the track to be public it will be listed on LocaToWeb.com and and in the app for everyone to see. A track can be changed to private/public at any time.

Both private and public tracks can be shared on social media, sent via messenger, email, SMS etc.

Tracks are only identified using a track title and an alias (a name that you choose for every track), which means you can be as anonymous as you like. Registration for an account is recommended but not required, you can install and track without any signup. Your email address (if registered) is never visible to anyone.

The app comes with several map types, including satellite and topographic which makes it great for navigation. Waypoints can be added and displayed on the map (GPX) if you want to pre-load a route. It’s also possible to load other tracks into your own map while tracking. 

Photos taken in the app will show on the map and can be viewed by others. Messages can be sent and received when the track is running.
When using the app to view other tracks you can pin your own position and see where you are relative to the track you are viewing.

### 5/5 — Great Tracking App

*2024-11-08*

Hey I just wanted to tell anyone quick if your looking for a detailed tracker this is the one.. it shows a lot of useful information and saves your track to let you pick back up to it and pause it whenever you like.. if you turn the setting on when you stop moving for a few minutes your tracker will stop then when you move again your phone will ask you to continue or not that way the results are more accurate..great app I love it and had 0 issues with it so far 👍

### 5/5 — Very good

*2024-07-23*

This app is very useful.

### 5/5 — Sehr coole APP!

*2023-08-01*

Ich nutze L2W als Segler seit vielen Jahren und sammle damit die Tracks meiner Törns. Das Schöne ist, dass man die Aufzeichnung der Tagestörns stoppen und neu starten kann, auch wenn man die APP deaktiviert. Man hat am Schluss den zusammenhängenden Törn über viele Tage. Über den Link sind alle Freunde stets mit dabei. Um alle tollen Features zu beschreiben fehlt hier leider der Platz. Eine meiner Lieblings-APPs.

### 5/5 — Läuft tadellos

*2023-07-12*

Ziemlich genau positioniert und das ohne großartige Akkuverbrauch. Schöne Sache mit Bilder im Track und die Nachrichten… Sehr zu empfehlen.

### 4/5 — Very Pleased so far

*2022-11-30*

I googled apps that allowed publishing of a track to web and LocaToWeb came up. I wanted to allow people to view the route of a charity Santa sleigh so they know when to expect us. 
So far it’s performed brilliantly and it’s very easy to set up tracks. Even managed to import kml file waypoints with no problems. 
Well worth the small purchase price.

### 5/5 — LocaToWeb - awesome tool for flying drones

*2022-07-27*

I work in a job that requires us to fly a wide variety of small UAS and drones. This is a super handy tool for gathering additional data, and pushing locations and tracks to the cloud for later analysis.

### 5/5 — Sehr exakt

*2022-05-03*

Läuft sauber und fehlerfrei. Die Trackingpunkte sind sehr genau. An der deutschen Übersetzung könnte man noch arbeiten.
