Where is the file being logged? How do I get to it? What is the default folder path?ĭue to recent restrictions, the default GPSLogger folder is different per device.

On Android 8+ (Oreo), the LocationManager has been limited: "Location updates are provided to background apps only a few times each hour." Or you can allow for slightly more inaccurate fixes - your mileage may vary as every phone is different in terms of how accurate a fix it can get on a regular basis. You can try setting a retry interval in which GPSLogger can wait for a matching accurate point to show up and then use it. The accuracy was below your Accuracy filter settings, or the distance was below your Distance filter settings, so GPSLogger didn't log it. This in turn means that Android OS will not have given a location to GPSLogger The GPS system will have attempted to find its location and given up after a while. You can see some partial workarounds on the Don't Kill My App site App developers don't have a way of detecting or working around these, and unfortunately the apps receive all the blame. Many vendors are also known to introduce their own additional poorly written but aggressive battery optimization mechanisms. It will not make a great difference though, doze mode is quite aggressive.

If you aren't sure, or if you've denied this permission you can disable battery optimization for GPSLogger manually which does not bypass doze mode but occasionally provides logging windows in which to work. Be sure to grant the app permission to run in the background by disabling battery optimization. On Android 6+ (Marshmallow), a new feature called doze mode was introduced, which severely restricts activity on the device after certain periods of inactivity. There are a few reasons this could happens. Sometimes your specified time interval will have passed, but no point was logged. My time interval has passed, but no point was logged Sometimes, the app will not log for long periods of time Multiple profiles with different settings are possible You can give it a preset file with your own values for distribution Invoke operations from Tasker or other automation apps.
