Tracking

Tracking allows you to store the geocoordinates as well as the speed and bearing of your trip. You can start or stop tracking in the navigation drawer by pressing the corresponding menu entry.

The time intervals at which waypoints are recorded can be set for the Regatta module and the Cruise module. To do this, press and hold the corresponding field until the selection dialog appears and select the corresponding interval. Long press may not work on older devices. Please note that particularly small intervals cannot be provided by all systems.

Tracking continues running in the background as long as the phones gps-sensor is active. You can also stop tracking by pointing at the notificaition shown in the notification selection of your phone. If the notification is not shown tracking is no longer running, possibly beeing stoppend by the android operating system.

Background Service

When not using your phone for a certain time the system will go into a battery-save-mode and stop all applications and background services, including tracking. To deal with this problem grant background permissions and Battery Optimization.
