![]() Looks good? Name it and save it and GPSTracks will guide you down the track you planned. How far it is from bridge A to bridge B on that river? Go to Tracks tab and trace every bend and oxbow and know exact distance before you hit the water. You can review, plan, map, and execute your track by land or water anywhere you can bring up on the map with this tool. We use it for planning and tracking kayaking trips, mostly on local rivers and waterways. It is feature rich and takes a little time to learn all it can do but it's worth every moment and penny. Whatever your application, this is your app. I reviewed several GPS apps and bought too many useless ones before I found this one. Usability is easy to learn and I have gotten a number of coworkers to use GPSTracks on their phones. Love the mapping subscription and benefit highly from the ESRI contour map. ![]() Although I am concerned about using it in a dense forest canopy, perhaps an accessory antenna may help. So far it has performed very well when offline/No Service which is imperative in the Hawaiian backcountry. GPSTracks doesn’t have a huge impact on my iPhone 8 battery life. I have even used it while flying to locate helicopter landing zones. I use GPS Tracks to inspect conservation fences, track invasive species control and search for endangered plants as well as field navigation. Loading external maps and data that have been emailed to me is a cinch. I’m freed up from needing a PC to transfer data and I can now deliver info straight from the field via text msg or email. I have ditched my clunky Garmin handheld unit and can run tracks and take photo waypoints for my work all day long. ![]() I use it daily in the rugged and remote terrain in Hawaii. Only with GPSTracks was I able to get the full picture so that I’d be able to pick which paths I wanted to take on any given day or view how long each path I picked would be on the days I didn’t have a lot of time.Īs a long time Biological Field Technician I have nothing but good things to say about GPSTracks. They only showed one track at a time, and that made it impossible to connect the tracks together. But the cool thing was that I was still able to create a map that showed all trails at once, so that from then on I was able to pick and choose what trails I wanted to take and even go from one trail to another during a walk. There were so many trails that I didn’t walk them all on one day. I simply kept doing this until I had walked all of the paths. I did this using GPSTracks, and only on days where I had a lot of time, since once I picked a path I didn’t know how far it would go or how long I would walked. The only way I knew to create an accurate map of the paths were to simply walk them, and have my phone track me while I walked. My new favorite place to walk is a park that has a lot of paths but the paths are not mapped out very well. GPS Tracks Pro (Auto-Renewing Yearly Subscription In-App Purchase) allows you to use Street, Terrain, Satellite, USGS, NOAA nautical charts, FAA charts, and many other alternate map sources, save maps for offline use, and use custom Map Tile Server URLs.
