Adventure Tracker is a simple application designed to use minimal battery allowing you to send location updates to the tracker server without running your phone battery flat.
I was looking for a way to allow my friends and family to follow my position whilst I was running an ultra-marathon, there are plenty of GPS trackers however none are optimised to run for 24hrs or more without needing to add power to your iPhone. Adventure tracker fill this hole, updating your position every 10 minutes Adventure tracker has a barely noticable drain on your iPhone battery. It runs in the background too so there is no disruption from a call or if you want to change your iPod music.
The site and the application is currently in beta mode, the basics of tracking is currently functional but I have not had the time to complete the other features which will be updated in the coming month. I welcome all feedback and suggestions if there is a way you would like to improve Adventure Tracker for your sport or even a general feature request please email adventuretracker@me.com
