GPS Track Log

Features
Read full description

GPS Track Log records your route with iPhone location data — walking, cycling, cars, boats, highways, and flights — and exports to GPX or KML. ■ What you can do • Start, pause, and stop recording, with a live map, waypoints, notes, and photos • Distance, time (moving time, excluding pauses), point count, and steps (steps are a walking estimate) • On the track detail screen, save as GPX or KML, or send the file from the share sheet • Adjust recording for general use, boats, fast ground travel, aviation, and more. Automatic mode switching is available • Lock Screen and Dynamic Island (depends on device and iOS settings). Pause from the Lock Screen can be turned on or off • Saved track list, rename, and speed / elevation charts • Settings for recording interval, filters, appearance, map, and speed units. Optional auto-stop when you return home ■ How recording works • Each mode uses different assumptions for slow and fast movement. • Indoors or near buildings, unlikely jumps are filtered out from the start (adjustable). • When the signal is weak, an optional setting can fill gaps (walking and heading on foot; direction of travel in a vehicle). Measured and filled points are shown in different colors on the map. ■ Data Tracks and photos stay on your iPhone. Export GPX or KML from track detail and send them with the share sheet. ■ Notes Requires iOS 17 or later. Position and distance depend on conditions. Background recording needs Location set to Always. ■ Ads A banner at the top of the start screen. A consent prompt may appear depending on your region.
