I am trying to learn the basic concepts of Android coding and this is my first app that is beyond a simple "hello world" on the Android platform.

The app is a "passive" GPS logger, only activating itself when other apps, such as Google maps, Waze etc, are already using the GPS, logging the track into sdcard/loclog as a GPX file.

This is why i've decided to try & code this:

  • I've been looking for a passive GPS logger on the play store before and found none, practically all of them are requesting locations on their own.
  • It provides a good training ground for multiple Android coding concepts (activities, intents, broadcast receivers, a service...)
Any chance anyone interested in testing this?
