Recording a GPS Track

Start recording a route, pause it, and review your path back at camp. Works offline.

Record your route in, so you always know your way out — no signal required.

  1. 1

    Tap the Tracker tab.

  2. 2

    Tap Start. The tracker begins recording and live stats appear: Time, Distance, Speed, and Elevation Gain.

  3. 3

    Keep hunting — the app keeps recording with your phone in your pocket, even with no cell service.

  4. 4

    Need a break? Tap Pause, then Resume when you're moving again (paused time won't count against your stats).

  5. 5

    When you're done, tap Stop, give the track a name (e.g. "Creek bottom loop — Oconee"), and tap Save.

  6. 6

    Review saved tracks anytime under My Content → Tracks. To see them drawn on the map, make sure Tracks is enabled under Layers → My Content.

Tip: Tracks sync to your account when you're back online, so the route you recorded on your phone is waiting for you on the web too.
