Customer Reviews
Very impressive application
Great idea to have manual tagging - allows you to record your journey without running out of battery all the time.
Perfect for international travel as a data plan is unnecessary (and the associated huge costs!).
Overall, a very good application, with an excellent, devoted developer. Just look at the support site linked to see how well supported this application is.
Fantastic tool as is, or to build into a larger web system
With the 1.3 release, GPS Log now has the ability to send a KMZ file of your visits to your email address, or upload KML files and thumbnails of your images to a script running on your server. This means it's become a fantastic trip blogging tool, you can easily get a file that you can view in Google Earth or view laid out in Google Maps on your own site, uploaded from wherever you can get coverage. And not have to have network coverage while you're gathering data, or worry about the battery life issues of a full-time tracker. I'll be using it to put trip reports of hikes, bike rides, and road trips on my weblog.
However, I think the applications for this go far beyond just a richer blogging experience; this tool should get integrated into maintenance systems, security routines, and other places where people need rich interfaces to providing location information. Any situation where people need to keep track of what they were doing when.
Other than that, it does exactly what it says: Lets you tap the screen and log information about a visit to a location, with pictures and notes, so it lets you keep track of where you've been and what you've done without needing to be running all the time (good for battery life), and doesn't require that you be connected to a network while you're doing so (good for remote areas or foreign travel where the roaming fees would otherwise kill you).
Overpriced but good
Great app but way overpriced. Only good if you need to see all saved locations basically showing your days path. Before you buy take a look at an app called "My Spots". It does the same thing minus the Google Earth exports.
My Spots still exports to Google Maps however and has a much faster and eye pleasing interface. You can also upload your favorite spots to Facebook or send your locations to people in your contacts an it's only $0.99
