WalkTracker will record your hiked route, calculate distance, speed and elevation gained. A smart algorithm will calculate for every completed track a 'difficulty indicator' (easy/moderate/heavy).
You can share the GPS data with friends and/or your social network by pressing the share-button. Send an image of the track, elevation profile and/or GPX file to email, Facebook, Instagram, Signal, Telegram, WhatsApp, WalkTracker Wiki and/or any other compatible application. The WalkTracker Wiki is a website containing hiking trails, shared by the community of WalkTracker users.
The app will submit every completed 5 km a notification i.e. to your connected smartwatch. Of course you can change from kilometers to miles or change this distance interval or switch it off.
- Following / Navigating pre recorded GPX track
Besides of recording your track as GPX, you can follow those tracks too. You will receive turn-by-turn navigation instructions at your Android device and/or at your connected watch. Besides of that you see a map with the route, your current location and a compass. To import a track, send a GPX file as attachment by email. Open the attachment or GPX file in the file explorer using 'WalkTracker'.
In the latest version your smartwatch / Wear OS device is an extension for this (accompanying) app, kind of a remote control, which will not function standalone. You can start/stop tracking from your watch. While you are moving (needs location updates), you see the average speed, duration an distance of the track. Using the Following function, you will see a compass with direction information. It is important that your mobile device (phone) is receiving location updates. After an interval, to reduce battery consumption, you will see your progress on your watch.

Questions & Answers
Q: What is an APK File?
A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.
Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.
Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?
A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.
Q: What are Android App permissions?
A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.
