Maps app that TRACKS/Documents your trip?

[GoodEnough]

Anyone know the best app to be able to look at the route of your drive after it's over?
Does Google Maps do this by now?

I use SPOT on my motorcycle, but that is a Satellite based subscription service at $99/year

If you have Google Location Services turned on already the route of your drive is already in Google Maps app.

Open the Google Maps app
Menu > Settings > Your timeline

Pick any date you like. Google is always watching.

Intersting, I had never bothered to look into that..... the little tacks are too far apart to be very useful if you really want to back track.

it does, however, show the route, and the places where I parked the car today....
ie, I was home and went to see my wife at the hospital.... then went back home.

it asked me if I was
1. home
2. hospital
3. home

said yes to all 3 and it drew me a map. nice

I just installed this app, and it is the Cat's Meow for a motorcyclist like me.
now I can keep a tracking log of my routes and upload them to Google Drive or other place when the trip is done and Wifi is available again.

It has a Compass Mode....

turn that on, and the map turns around showing you the world around you in perfect reference to your point of view/travel.

If you use that mode, and are on your Data Plan, get ready to spend a few $$$ real quick

I turned that off again, all I want is the tracker log and it don't need data for that.

Haha yes it's one of those apps that has too many cool features that it could very quickly break the bank and drain your battery real fast.

a guy on my motorcycle forum recommended REVER, but that app and its' associated monthly fees is for the birds.
No thanks on that one.... if you use it like they want you to, "track your friends in Real Time", OMG, talk about burning up your data plan minutes.....

I told him I would pass on that, all I wanted is a good tracker and this app provides that in spades
