Description

WARNING: This was made for a very old version of android before the unified google play positioning API was available. Because of this, it constantly uses just GPS, which eats up your battery pretty fast. This is open source and free software; only the google play store version costs money. I do not have plans on updating it, though I will probably add it to github if anyone else ever wanted to.

Keeps track of your current global position via GPS so your whereabouts can be monitored through a Google Maps interface. Only the current position is known, and previous positions are not logged. A person’s position cannot be viewed by another user without an access key provided during registration on the website.

This is an open source project, so it is free if you want to compile it yourself. See http://www.castledragmire.com/Projects/GPS_Mapping for more information, including how to set up your own server.

Visit http://www.castledragmire.com/ProjectContent/GPSMapping to register and view GPS locations.

This project currently uses only GPS positioning to find locations (the old way Android used to do it), so it is a bit of a battery hog. I should be updating it at some point to use the new Google Play Location Service which is much more optimized.

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.
