Description

A lightweight, battery efficient GPS Logger. The purpose of this app is to log your GPS coordinates at specified intervals to a file on your SD card. This app runs in the background so that you can on a long walk, hike, flight ride or photo session or even go buy some milk and have this running as long as possible. Once you're back at your computer, you can then use the files to geotag photos, upload to travel sites, view in Google Earth and so on.

***Notes:

A data connection is used by this app only if you use auto-email or OpenStreetMap or Dropbox features.

Although the app allows 0 second frequencies, it is not recommended as the recording and logging is happening very fast; this could cause instability/hangs. Try 1-3 seconds instead.

If there's a feature that you feel the app should have, you can submit a feature request on the github site.

***Explanation of permissions:

Storage - reading and writing files to the GPSLogger folder on your SD card

Network communication - used when uploading the files (Dropbox, Openstreetmap) or sending emails or authorizing you with Dropbox, Openstreetmap

Your location - used to determine your GPS or tower based location

System tools (automatically start at boot) - used if you choose to start GPSLogger on bootup

Activity recognition - to recognize when phone is still and to pause logging

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 ★(2020/02/15) Current version stops getting fixes randomly, especially during red lights when I'm driving (yes, settings are correct). Previous versions worked perfectly.
5 ★This has been my favorite GPS logger for five or six years now. However, it keeps crashing and failing to record on my OnePlus 6 phone. Not sure why.
4 ★Cool upload features. The UI could be improved. I miss the possibility to add waypoints to the record, to mark special points during the tracking a path, such as peaks...
4 ★Rating 4/5 because it does not send files until the phone is unlocked and this app is foregrounded. In fact it wasn't recording much of anything until I turned on all options. Contact me for debug logs, kprichard at gmail
5 ★Very complete, flexible and straightforward app. It's opensource on GitHub, and its creator is very responsive and attentive. Thanks for this.
5 ★Best app for fast, simple and accurate track recording. I like very low battery draining. Big thanks to the developer.
5 ★Good stuff. I only wish it could log other sensors as well, for example pressure.
5 ★Awesome app. Using it now for several years. Developers are very responsive in case of errors
5 ★Great GPS logger, full of features, excellent documentation, thank you! The best logger I've found.
4 ★Very good. Use all the time. Google Drive upload cannot specify subfolders? (file end up in "a/b" instead of folder "b" inside folder "a"?
5 ★Best GPS logger with lot of configuration options to suit every situation. Even advanced features are well explained and easy to understand first time.
5 ★The best app to log gps positions with traccar and home assistant. Very light on battery use and has all the options one needs to build a location history.
