I love my tracks for keeping track of my mileage for my car expenses. There are 
lots of apps that do this, but none as simply as my tracks. Except I'd love 
auto track...

When I get in the car I either put in dock and/or connect charger. If when this 
happens it automatically turns on GPS which looks for speed over say 10 km/h 
and auto starts tracking. Connecting the charger tells phone it is in car and 
starts auto tracking location, distance and date.

Come the end of the month you have tracks for all your car journeys 
automatically...fantastic!

In the next version, there will be a lock screen widget for easier 
recording/stopping.

I don't think we would automatically record when charger is turned on. There is 
too many privacy concern to auto-record tracks.
