A favorite point is any point on the track that was either favorited while the track was active, or was marked favorite after the track recording finished. Any point on the track can become favorite after an image, video, voice memo, tag, description or an address was added to it and can be un-favorited if all point details are erased. A favorite point will be star-shaped and will take the colors and the attributes of the point it previously was.

In order to see the stationary point statistics (Arrival time, Departure time, Time from start, Distance from start, Altitude and Height change since start), you need to select a stationary point first. On the bottom of the screen, the three statistics panels will show up in darker blue.

If, while recording a track, you suddenly find a great spot that you want to immediately mark as a favorite, tap the “Mark as Favorite” icon in the lower right corner of the map, which is marked with a symbol made of a star. This will mark the current point as a favorite. In case you have marked a previous point, this point will be marked as a favorite.

Photo
In order to add a photo to a point, tap on the point on the map that you need to attach the photo to and choose the Add Photo icon from the row of point information icons. A pop-up menu will allow you to either Take a photo or Add photos from library. As soon as you have taken a photo or added one or more from the library, it/they will show up in the photo field in the point details.

Video

Adding a video is similar to adding a photo, the only real difference is how the video is associated with the track points after the video is added. Since videos are not instant, TraceMyTrack will try to associate your video with multiple locations depending on the video duration, but it will always follow some simple rules:

– if you capture a new video or add a video which was recorded at the same time as the selected point, the video will be associated with the selected point and all next points which were captured during the duration of the video. TraceMyTrack will highlight this track line section for you, and also mark the video beginning and end point with a special icon.

– if you add a video which was not recorded at the same time as the selcted point, the video will only be associated with the selected point.

If you wish to delete a photo or a video from a point, you need to first select the targeted point on the map/track. The point details will appear in the lower half or the screen. Long press on the photo/video you wish to delete. An x button will show up in the lower right corner of the photo/video. Tap on the x button and the photo/video will be deleted.

The only difference between deleting a video and deleting a photo is that when you delete a video, the video will also be deleted from the rest of the points in the current track which may contain this video.

 

If you want to add tags to a point, first you need to select the targeted point. Choose the Add Tags icon from the row of point information icons.

If you want to add description to a point, first you need to select the targeted point. If you are in the preview mode, by tapping on the Add description icon in the edit point icons at the top of the edit point details, you trigger a pop-up window that allows you to type in the desired description. Tap Ok and the description will appear in the description field of the edit point details. In the full-view mode, you can add a description by typing it directly in the Add description field.

If you wish to delete description from a point, whether you are in the preview or the full-view edit point mode, hold a long tap on the description field and an x button will show up in the lower right corner of the field. By tapping on the x button, the description will be completely erased.

When navigating the track in “Timeline mode” if you tap on the lower left button, TraceMyTrack will automatically split the track into continuous sections. In this case a section is an uninterrupted track portion. A section ends either when the track itself ends or when the track line goes off the screen. On the other hand, a section starts when the track itself starts or at the first point of the track that comes into view after the track line went off screen.

By continuing a track after a stop, a new subtrack is created. In the track list, the subtrack can be expanded and be viewed separately by selection. A subtrack can also be created by splitting a point, in which case the track or subtrack is divided into two subtracks. To do this, select the point where you want to split, then tap the “Scissors” icon and select Split from the menu. After that you can choose if the selected point should belong to the previous or to the next track. With “Split” the division takes place.

Exporting and importing a track is only possible if you have upgraded to TraceMyTrack PRO . Go to Main Menu and select the option Export track. Choose from the pop-over window the format option TraceMyTrack. A mailing window will appear and you can add the email address in the first field. The track is attached to the email and you can send it to your friends.

Besides .gpx, .kml, .kmz, .csv export and import formats, one new format is available: TraceMyTrack. It was specifically created for users of TraceMyTrack to be able to export tracks and import them on to another iOS device. Tracks can therefore be shared with anybody who has an iOS device and TraceMyTrack PRO installed on it.

When someone sends you an exported track, you can import it to your device by tapping on the attachment icon and by choosing the TraceMyTrack app icon from the app selection window. TraceMyTrack app will open and a dialogue window will ask you if you want to import the track and will also give you the name of the track that you are about to import. You can choose to import it or to cancel the action. Once the track has been imported, you can find it in your Track list, under “Imported Tracks”.

Sie müssen lediglich eines der Batterieprofile auswählen, das für Sie am bequemsten ist. Tippen Sie auf die Menütaste “Aufzeichnungsprofile”, um die fünf Batterieprofiloptionen anzuzeigen, die von 1 bis 5 von der höchsten bis zur niedrigsten Aufzeichnungsgenauigkeit geordnet sind, und wählen Sie das Profil aus, das am besten zu der Art der Aktivität passt, die Sie durchführen.

With the LITE version, you have limited access to TraceMyTrack features. For example, you can only record 5 Tracks and only within 1250 available track points, you can not display info bubbles or can’t auto assign new photos to your track. With the PRO version, you can record as many tracks as you like and there is no limit to the number of points. Only by upgrading to PRO, you can export your track as CSV, GPX, KML (with or without images).

Before we start you will need the following:
– the device where TraceMyTrack is installed
– internet connection
– a computer with iTunes installed
– a data transfer cable (charging cable)
1. Connect the device to iTunes -> select the device, then:
1.a. Select the “Apps” tab
1.b. Scroll down by dragging the rightmost scroll bar, until you reach “File Sharing” title
1.c. in “Apps” list select “TraceMyTrack” and from the right side, copy the folder “logs” and the file “MyTrack2.sqlite” to the computer. If you have both TraceMyTrack Pro and TraceMyTrack Lite installed on the device, then in the app list you will have two identical “TraceMyTrack” apps, and since you can’t know for sure which is the Lite version just copy the Logs and MyTrack2.sqlite from both of them on the computer.
2. Now you need to send us the files you copied to the computer (“MyTrack2.sqlite” file and the “logs” folder), via e-mail (you will probably need to compress the logs folder, before attaching it to the mail).

TraceMyTrack can be used without internet connection, but you need to download the map from the area where you want to create the track in the Main Menu – Manage offline maps, and in the Main Menu you must enable the Use offline maps option. You will only be able to have access to the Help section when you are connected to a WiFi or to your Mobile Data.

Track line

What do the colors mean?
TraceMyTrack is programmed to color your tracks/subtracks depending on your speed. As such, when the speed is 0 or up to 30km/h, the color will be dark red. When the speed is approximately 30km-60km/h, the track/subtrack will go into a lighter red hue. Between 60km-90km/h, the track/subtrack will get magenta hues. As the speed grows, the track will become purple – for the interval 90km – 120km/h – and above this speed, it will get darker hues of blue. Starting with 150km/h and up, the track/subtrack will color into an increasingly lighter blue.

Guide section

If you add guide sections to your track, they will be drawn underneath the track line with a greenish color.

Video section

If you assign a video to a track, TraceMyTrack will highlight the section of the track where the video was taken by drawing a “film strip” underneath the track line.

If a track has guides applied to it, you can remove them by going to main and selecting “Remove guide sections”. If the track doesn’t have any guides applied to it this option will not show up in main menu.

If you want to record a new track but you want to follow a specific path or a track which was recorded by someone else, you can add that track as a guide to your currently opened track. The guide track will be temporarily overlayed on the map beneath your trackline.
