Record tracks of your trips and share them with your friends! Geo Tracker can help: • making the reverse journey in an unfamiliar area without getting lost

Thanks! Useful tips & tricks to solve common GPS issues with your smartphone: • If you start the tracking please wait with recording your activity until the GPS signal is found. • Restart your smartphone and make sure that you have "clear view"of the sky before you start (no disturbing objects like high buildings, forest, etc.). • The reception conditions are permanently changing because they got influenced by the following factors: weather, season, positioning of satellites, areas with bad GPS coverage, high buildings, forest, etc.). • Go to phone settings, choose "Location"and activate it. • Go to phone settings, choose "Date & time"and activate the following options: "Automatic date & time"and "Automatic time zone". It may occur that it takes longer until the GPS signal is found if your smartphone is set to the wrong time zone. • Deactivate the airplane mode in your phone settings. If none of these tips & tricks helped to solve your issues, deinstall the app and reinstall it again. Be aware that Google uses in their Google Maps app not only the GPS data but also additional data of the current location from surrounding WLAN networks and/or mobile networks.
