MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
Is there an app for an android phone which will allow to save the data and post it to say Google Earth for studying on a PC when you get home?
I know Google Earth will take a Garmin file and display the breadcrumb trail as an overlay on Earth it's self. So you can study your day out. But is there an APP for androids to save a file when in GPS mode on a phone.
I think you can do this with an app called "my tracks"
Yep mytracks, save the route then export it to the SD card as a .gpx file, which you can then upload to your PC etc.
I use it all the time for Strava as it doesnt eat into my data allowance.
I've not tried it with Google Earth, but I [i]think [/i]it's simpler than that. Once you've logged it with My Tracks just hit 'Send to Google'. Then you can, I think, pick it up from your account directly from within Google. No exporting, saving, uploading, anything.
I think.
Record the route with mytracks. Go to the tracks section, select and hold the route > play.
*edit* if you want you can export the route as .gpx or.kml for use with Google earth as well.
Its a bit lumpy using google earth via the phone, but yes play will do it.
