HAZ Tracks - GPS Hiking App
● record hikes
● import & export
● offline topo & satellite maps

Android
1.8.22


iPhone
1.8.23


Quirks ( not a HAZ Tracks issue )
- Nexus w/Jellybean off line maps do not work, consider upgrading to 4.4 or higher
- Moto X not working? try "Device only" rather than "High accuracy"
- Android 4.1.1 map freezes, upgrade your device to 4.1.2 or higher

HAZ Tracks on iPhone - Heads up!

iPhone only works with screen on or continuously moving

CHUMS nailed it. Apparently I need to mimic breaks on Squaw when testing. People are gonna think I'm sick but I'll do it for HAZ. It will be a couple weeks to get a fix in.

Really wish Cannondalekid or FOTG would fix the quick reply like it used to be... annoying!

I just started using HAZ Trks on my Galaxy Nexus, Kitkat 4.2.1. Works great to track and follow except I can't get maps to cache for offline use. I've checked that app settings are correct, I've got about 10 GB available storage, I've tried soft reboots, etc. Each time I set route to follow later, and then switch to airplane mode, I lose the map. Can anyone help? Thanks much.

-> Pick your track
-> Select - Drive to or begin
-> Select - Follow
-> Select - Set
-> Select Okay -> calculating, wait until importing is 100%. This could take a couple of minutes.
once it says "100% available until changed" it's OK to go to Airplane Mode
-> Select - begin activity

Unfortunately, it's a Nexus thing. I have the same issue with my Jellybean version. Joe and I had this discussion a couple weeks ago.

@Daneu welcome to HAZ daneu!

You are the second ( tibber beat me to the post ) to report this with a "nexus" on "jellybean". Either an issue in Nexus or that device/os combo.
If your carrier offers the upgrade to 4.4 or 5.0 it may resolve.

On Kyocera w/Ice Cream Sandwich I noticed the maps would get bumped from memory if I used other apps so I didn't use anything before the hike. On Note II w/Kit Kat either I haven't had that issue or its so rare it slips my memory.

Hmmm as is usually the case, I think I missed the punch line or showed up late to this one... not really following you lol

[CannondaleKid]

@friendofThundergod Probably has something to do with our issues with the 'My 2 cents' smiley.

@The Eagle
Thanks. I've done that but when I select OK to download, nothing hapepens.

@joe bartels
Thanks. Nexus won't upgrade beyond Kitkat. Maybe this is an excuse for a new phone!

HAZ Tracks 1.8.20 for iOS sent* to iTunes
Based on iOS 7.1 iPhone & iOS 8.1 iPad tests...
- continues running with screen off in background with music in foreground playing music
- splits and alert audio is heard while music is playing

* current iTune approval time is hovering around 7 days
- 8.2 for iWatch integration just came out today, hopefully it wasn't a waste of a couple days of mind numbing coding

[joebartels]

HAZ Tracks 1.8.20 for iOS went live two days ago.

@joe bartels
Today was my first time using the new version. I can hear the nature sounds now. Yay!

[CannondaleKid]

Today I got a chance to try out my first SmartPhone and best of all, HAZ Tracks! (This thread isn't about phones so I'll skip those details)

Although I have plenty to learn yet, HAZ Tracks worked great the first time!
Thanks Joe! :worthy:

If there are any HAZ Tracks users who have yet to donate for a job well done, I'd strongly urge you to do so...
It's gotta be worth at least $25, don'cha think?

[CannondaleKid]

And another thing...

Joe just added another Youtube video out there to answer all your (my) questions about the...HAZ Tracks Settings screen

[trekkin_gecko]

[nonot]

[mazatzal]

I know some smart people but my phone is dumb

[chumley]

My phone is smarter than me. That's why I have it.
