New release - v1.2

2008-04-11T11:29:05+00:00

We’re pleased to announce that today we have released Map My Tracks Mobile v1.2.

In this release we have added:

Where Am I?
Show your current position on a map without starting a track. Sometimes it useful to just see where you are without tracking. Where am I does just this.

Tag tracks
Organise your tracks by tagging them directly from your phone. Now you can tag your tracks from your phone as you start them and have them appear within your tracks on the site. It’s a great way to organise your tracks by activity, location or whatever you find useful.

Global time
We now have a universal notion of time. No matter where you are in the world, viewing a track in realtime shows correct track information across time zones.

Signed version
We have also made available a signed (trusted) version of the Map My Tracks Mobile. For many people, this will help Map My Tracks install and work correctly.

Get the latest version by browsing on your mobile to http://www.mapmytracks.com/install.

Enjoy.
