NOTE on Scary Tracking Permission.
On Android 10 and above the application asks for permission to track you in the
background. No we are not mining your phone for personal data. Without the permission the phone will stop tracking when you lock the screen or use a different application. We use Firebase/Crashlytics to track general problems on
the phones. We don't keep or retain any personal data ( it stays on your phone ).
If you have problems or questions please tap the help/feedback on the home screen and send a message. Warning, depending on my work load it may take a couple of days to get a reply.

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.
Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

User's Reivew
1 ★I only want it to track me while the app is in use...it wants to track my location all the time...hate that. I've used the app for years and loved it.
5 ★Great app. Shows all of the activity and gives your your route and stats. App creator is on the ball too.
5 ★Best walking app. Good tracking data; easy to use . Simple and excellent.
4 ★Does what it says, but occasionally has a tracking blip with a gps error. Better with the phone in aeroplane mode.
2 ★I haven't been able to use it because I allowed it to see my location only while in use. Why would it need my location at other times?
3 ★It was brilliant, now it's started shutting itself off.
1 ★Turns off when you receive a call or text
4 ★I have tried to use this when I row in Narragansett Bay. It doesn't seem to work on water. Is that right?
1 ★Stupid permission requirements, no, the damn thing does not need to track my location all the time. It only need to track when I'm using the app, and the app refuses to run unless it has the full location at all times permission.. uhh, no. Uninstalled.
3 ★Turns off randomly. The verdict is still out on this app. When it's on it works perfectly and does everything I want. Gives me a map, counts accurate steps and milage with no Fitbit etc required. But it does just turn itself off at random points so nothing is really accurate because big chunks of your walk are missed off and the data gets split into three or four separate walks that you'd need to add up....which feels pointless since chunks are missing anyway. Keep or delete? Unsure
1 ★Keeps stopping after about 10mins. Also the accuracy of the App for mapping is totally out of sync to where you walk. Only good thing I found was the layout and it uses Google maps. Used on a 'One Plus 5 ' phone.
5 ★I first installed this app 2 years ago and it was great. I have recently changed my phone - Galaxy S4 Android 5 - and now the recorded trail suddenly jumps to places off route and adds miles to my walk. Help please. A small app which does what you need and doesn't take a lot of space or battery power. It works really well without a load of frills. Lots of ways to download the file and look at your walks in Google earth/maps.i
