Closed NohWayJose closed 4 years ago
Thanks for the comment. I designed the app mainly to record short outdoor activities, like trekking, cycling excursions. I know some people use the app for multiday activities, but I am not convinced I want to go in this direction. The same applies to geofencing or detecting bluetooth devices. I would prefer to keep the app simple rather than changing it into a Swiss army knife.
For starting new tracks periodically or triggering it by some other events you could use an application like Tasker. Μy µlogger offers interface for integration with such tools.
Better database filtering on server is a good idea that is on my todo list.
@NohWayJose 1-3 can all be accomplished by using Easer to trigger a new µLogger track.
This issue has been automatically marked as stale because it has not had recent activity. It will be closed if no further activity occurs. Thank you for your contributions.
A usability issue, rather than a technical one. As an experiment I've been tracking my daughter's phone (with her knowledge), as a proof of tech for when we go to music festivals and other crowded places. Unfortunately I have found that the tracks just get more and more like a bird's nest,
Please will you add a setting to generate a new track periodically. This could be simple to start with, just starting a new track at midnight, (name based on the track template).
Later versions could: 1/ have explicit start and end periods (along the lines of a calendar event, with a repeat option?) 2/ Trigger a new track in response to other GPS events (such as being within a certain distance of a coordinate position or being too far from one) 3/ Detecting a specific bluetooth device, such as the headphones you run in 4/ A new track triggered on the client by the server or even just a way of querying/filtering the data-set at the server end to dynamically (and on demand) break down the tracks into more manageable and meaningful sections
