will it still track without Internet connection?

Post by waltbosz »

Does your app continue to track my GPS location after I've lost Internet connectivity, and if so, are those GPS datapoints sent to the online map after Internet connectivity is restored?

For example, if I'm tracking, and my Internet goes down for 10 minutes, but I continue moving ... when I regain Internet access, will the online map show the GPS points that were collected while I did not have Internet access?

Thanks for the great app!

Hi,
Yes, data is buffered and sent if connection works again.

Is there a formula to calculate how much buffer space I need? If I have the update interval at say 30s, and I travel an hour without data connection that is 120 datapoints. Would I run out of memory while traveling through an area with no cell coverage?

No, that's no problem. Usually you can buffer for several hours, maybe even days.
