**MINIMIZE DATA CHARGES BY TURNING OFF NETWORK SETTINGS**
When you turn off 3G, Cell Data, and Data Roaming, HipGeo will cache your GPS points and photos with these network settings off, then upload your data when you get to a wifi connection. Great for minimizing foreign usage fees.
For continuous recording of your routes, use our optional auto-recording features, which turns HipGeo into "an app that follows you".
Note However- Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.
"What the team has built is remarkable... Almost every screen in the app
impressed me with the thoughtfulness of the features, the privacy settings
