myTracks turns your iPhone into a fully functional GPS logger.

myTracks turns your iPhone into a fully functional GPS logger. During recording, you can add waypoints to highlight important locations. The GPS tracks are stored on your iPhone and optionally in iCloud. There is no need to register or login to any internet service. Your tracks are your tracks. You can start and stop individual GPS recordings or use the power-saving diary mode. Using this mode myTracks automatically creates a single track for each day with the most important locations. The integrated Apple Watch app displays information about the current GPS recording. This includes the starting time, distance traveled, current, minimum and maximum elevation. Here is an overview of the main features of myTracks: GPS Recording: You record GPS tracks using different time intervals accuracy settings. There is no need for an active internet connection. Vector Maps: The tracks are shown on vector maps based on OpenStreetMap. Offline Maps: myTracks provides offline maps for every country of the world. Once an offline map has been loaded to your iPhone you can zoom in to any detail of the map without an internet connection. Offline maps are available as in-app purchase. Track Organization: You can organize your tracks using folders, e.g. a folder for a year a folder for a holiday. Export and Sharing: Tracks can be exported as GPX, KML or KMZ files.
