User Reviews

Overall, GPS Logger is viewed very positively. Reviewers highlight precise GPS tracking, a stable and intuitive UI, and reliable offline logging. Data export is a strong point, with easy CSV/KML/KMZ exports that work well with Google Earth. The app is described as free to use, with several notes about minimal or no ads. Some users mention rare background-running quirks or signal/polling nuances, but these do not appear as widespread issues.

High-accuracy GPS tracking suitable for fieldwork
Stable, simple, and easy-to-use interface
Flexible exports to CSV, KML, and KMZ with good Google Earth compatibility
Offline logging support (GPX)
Free to use and commonly noted as ad-free by users

Cons

Recent reviews

despite enabling unrestricted background, this app keeps getting killed without making any notifications. less than 20% of the time can I log for more than 2 hours successfully.

It's a good GPS logger that just works and which takes very little battery. It has always worked well, but recently it stops recording unexpectedly. I've gone over all the settings and the recommendations, but it keeps stopping. It seams to be an issue with the app.

This is wonderfully lightweight software dedicated to one task - capturing GPS tracks. I'm a keen photographer and linking my camera's app to camera for GPS is too unreliable in the field. Using this App gives me a reliable workflow in Darktable effortlessly blending GPS track and images. So GPS Logger's simple to use app reliably beats camera manufacturer's bloatware.
