I have always liked to keep track of where, when and what happened on my outings. My Tracks from Google has done a perfect job of accomplishing these goals. But at the end of the month Google is going to retire it. And I have been looking for a replacment for it without much success. All the other GPS apps that I have looked at only want to be concerned with calories and not much else. The features that I liked were overview maps showing the start and finish points along with way points (that can be set on a variable timer, I liked 10 min) at the way point it gave an auditable status as to your progress. At the end of the paddle it gave a list of stats, such as total distance, average speed, average moving speed, total time, total moving time, elevation (not much use for boats). And a place to make notes. Does anyone else out there have an app that they are using on their paddles that they enjoy. I'm not so much into the fitness part, as this gives me a record as to places I've been to and enjoyed, and where I want to go back to along with a list of memories, thanks to the notes.
