GPS Long Distance Log FREE

Route tracking app and logbook for Android

LD-Log tracks your routes using the phone's GPS device and can be used without an internet connection. Waypoints are taken either manually or automatically with a user-definable interval set in minutes. As such, the app is designed to consume very little battery power.

LD-Log is ideally suited for logging long distance journeys and multi-day trips as well as any other stretches of way for which a second-by-second tracking path is not needed. Typical examples include offshore sailing (for which it has special built-in features), long distance hiking, cycling, canoeing etc.

The editable waypoint-list for each route of your trip let's you create a detailed record or navigation log of your complete journey. Trips, routes and logbooks may be stored.

*** This is the free version of LD-Log. If you need complete functionality or would like to support further development, search for the full version ***
