The track with all details is recorded internally in a DB for optimal performance.
It stays there immutable from app restarts - until explicitly “Clear GPS logging”.
Anytime can save the current track, selecting also the data to enter in GPS file.
Can enable the tracking widget (top right) via “Tools | GPS logging” menu.
If mean its save dialog, can tap widget to record a track & see all options.
Thank you., got it.
I find these nice gpx-files in the root of the main-storage. Is there a possibility to adress the storage at least in the default kurviger location, or even better, can I define a default storage folder on the phone myself?
After deleting all the yellow marked sections (speed info) I was able to import it into BaseCamp.
Maybe the reason is a difference between GPX 1.0 and GPX 1.1?
Apart from that the track seems pretty good using the default options in the GPS logging settings. For a distance of aprox. 68km the track consisted of aprox. 700 trackpoints. Accuracy was pretty good (apart from a short “breakout” because of regaining GPS signal after leaving a tunnel).
Are there any limitations concerning the length of a DB stored track? For example if I forget to save or clear the current track for a couple of tours or days/weeks?
That’s right, the old GPX 1.0 had the speed tag, but the current GPX 1.1 allows it as extension.
I could add an option in save dialog to select GPX 1.0 or 1.1 implementation.
While navigation is active, can scroll the map with gestures, but after a while the map auto centers again on user location and navigation continues.
Track data occupy little space, so there is no actual concern.
If it’s not too difficult to do that would be an improvement because tracks would be more flexible to use on other / older applications. And I think there’re still a lot of Basecamp users out there, even after Garmin seems to have decided not to continue it’s development any longer.
Ah, got your point now. Yes, this sounds like a reasonable compromise. Better than just do nothing after selecting a bookmark/waypoint (some users may be confused if they’re not aware of being in “follow position” mode at the moment).
Sounds great. Very helpful for poeple who want to track a longer journey which takes more than one day and is based on several routes. Therefore your tracking solution is in fact more useful than those integrated in most competitor’s apps (or navigation devices)!
TOP Erweiterung.
Hab ich jetzt auch getestet. Funktioniert Bestens!
Besonders gut finde ich, dass der Track Online mit gezeichnet wird.
Bei Halts abseits der Route kann man auf einen Blick erkennen in welcher Richtung es weiter geht. Super Vorher musste man schon mal Scrollen um die nächste Wegpunktnummer zu finden.
I’ve tested it yesterday but I still don’t understand the fuction.
After tracking I’ ve stored the file with a new name. Then I’ m able to import this new file to drive it a second time. That’ s the idea, correct?
But where or how can I see the additional information about the velocity I’ve stored before?
And additionally why has this GPS-track to be stored as .gpx and the kurviger-file is not possible?
Thanks in advance

The idea is to offer the GPS logging feature inside the app to everyone needs it for whatever reason, instead of using external trackers. There is not one kind of use, everyone can use it according to any specific requirements.
GPX format is different than Kurviger format. As explained before, GPX stores just coordinates with possible extra data (e.g. elevation), while Kurviger stores complete routes with turn instructions for navigation. Not really directly related.
