GPS tracking
If you care about being continuously tracked or would like more battery life you will need to select “always” when using the app then select “never” when finished. This is a needless hassle, well, obviously.
Some apps, maybe all of them that use positioning data, can use or sell your location data for the purposes of ad targeting. Government agencies currently can also obtain this data without a warrant.
Something to consider.

What you claim is not correct. The fundamental issue is that Apple only considers an app to be "in use" when the screen lock is off and the app is visible. There are no developer tricks to work around this constraint. Please take the time to read how Apple describes it on their support pages (https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT207092 for full context): * While Using the App: Allows access to Location Services only when the app or one of its features is visible on screen. If an app is set to While Using the App, you might see your status bar turn blue with a message that an app is actively using your location. * Always: Allows access to your location even when the app is in the background. This means that unless you select Always mode, an app will not be able to get location updates when screenlock is on or you receive a phonecall etc. Also, just to make it perfectly clear: UsynligO is not involved with any form of ads and do not sell any user data of any kind. The only location related data which ever leaves your phone is when it records that you have found a control. If you record your track during a race, it is only stored locally on your phone. Please feel free to contact me via the UsynligO FB page if you would like to discuss this further or if you have any other concern. Thanks.
Keep on going

Thanks!
Don’t like Facebook...
I wish there was an option for the organizer to turn off the hints so it could be used for competitions (within the limitations).
I wish the main communication wasn’t on Facebook as I don’t have (and don’t want to have) a FB account.

I am contemplating to add this, but is it not enough that the results show if hints have been used? You can also contact me at support@usynligo.no if you do not have FB account.
Love this app

Thanks for the review! Make sure you have the screen lock turned on. My guess is that the buttons were accidentally activated.
