## What is Tracker?

Tracker is built for one thing: recording where you went, so you can share it.

Hiking deep in the jungle. Biking the Moab backcountry. Four-wheeling the
Fruita high desert. Press record, enjoy the trek, and share your route when you
get back.

RECORDS THE WHOLE TRIP

A point every 30 feet, in the background, with the screen off and the phone in
your pocket. Distance, elevation gain and elapsed time update as you go, and a
marker appears each time you pass a whole mile.

Pause at the overlook and the track shows the pause, instead of drawing a
straight line across wherever you sat.

EXPORTS AS GPX, NOT AS A SCREENSHOT

Every track saves as a standard GPX file that opens in most popular mapping
apps. Send one by email or AirDrop, or reach into the iOS Files app and take it
yourself -- the tracks folder is right there.

Play a saved recording back on the map at three speeds, check the position
accuracy you were getting, or delete what you no longer need.

NOTHING TO SIGN UP FOR

No account, no sign-in, no subscription.
No analytics, crash reporting, or advertising.
No third-party SDKs, and no network code at all.

Your tracks stay on your iPhone until you choose to send them somewhere. There
is no server here to send them to.

SPEAKS YOUR LANGUAGE, IN YOUR UNITS

English, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Japanese and Norwegian, in miles or
kilometres -- and you can override either one inside the app, whatever the
phone is set to.

Nothing less. Nothing more.

Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease
battery life. Tracker enables background location only while a recording is
running, and switches it off the moment you stop.
