This app tracks all your movements. Your current speed is displayed and the background color adapts according to a color scheme. Different schemes can be used and customised. Sounds and voice announcement can be played at certain speed intervals. The recorded tracking information is processed into 'Visits' (places where you stay some time) and 'Movements' (transitions between those places), including their start and end date. The type of your movements is guessed based on their speed and represented by the corresponding icon. Tap the icon to see all the locations recorded for each visit or movement. You can also see all the 'Places', including their address if available, that you have visited. All the information is shown as colored lists and on a map. You can export some or all of the location with their timestamps and share that information by e-mail or messenger with specific people or to further analyse it yourself.
