With POSMO Segments you can track all your movements. In this first release, you’ll be able to record single-mode segments like walking, running, driving a bike or car, using public transport as well as electric kick scooters or a skateboard. If you save your segments to posmo.datamap.io, you can see how quickly you move around, when and where you have to stop etc. You can also download your data from posmo.datamap.io and analyze it yourself. As segments are recorded at 50Hz, we recommend to record no more than 90 minutes per single segment. In our next release, we’ll use less data, so that you can record longer segments and journeys, e.g. a multi-segment track from home to work.
StarTrac

StarTrac works in the background to capture the relevant journey details when you are in motion to deliver your scores. StarTrac is always on in the background and is automatically activated when you start a journey by detecting a faster and longer movement from one point to another. StarTrac will not record a journey if your battery level is too low. To change this, you can adjust the battery level limit in the Settings menu. Your total score is calculated from all your journeys which have been recorded on StarTrac. The score for a single journey is based on your driving skills, such as smooth driving (how you accelerate and brake), the time of day, the length of your journey by hours driven and phone usage. All scores range from 0 - 100 with 100 being a perfect score and very hard to achieve.
