What is the best FREE/accurate tracker that will follow the bb's wherabouts on a map?

[JunkieXP]

I tought I heard people talking about InstaMapper, haven't used it myself though.

Enjoy,

InstaMapper - Free Real-Time GPS Tracking

[Dispatcher35]

I've been using Instamapper for a while now and never had a problem. It allows you to

• Post you current location. (wap & web)
• Create tracks of past trips
• Share your tracks you wish

I do a lot of driving for work and post my tracks for friends to see where I've been. check out mike-gps.notlong.comto see where I've been.

I can't seem to install it, anyone with a 8900 tried?

[anon(1495669)]

Don't work for me.

I used InstaMapper for my wife's 8310 (loss prevention). Problem is that, when reporting persistently (more than 6 times a day or when her device moved more than 2 miles), it killed her battery. Other than that, accurate and free.

instamapper... hmm i'll have to try it

[Miz.Michele]

I just installed Moostrax

https://www.moostrax.com/

seems pretty good

[mrsjackd]

i just dowloaded aMAZE and it seems to be ok. (still learning)

[Powdah]

I use Sandooi and it works well

[CuRvEyCuRvE8900]

Do you need a data plan for those?

[bearkat38]

Try this one:

Map your tracks and photos, share your position from your mobile | free Mobile GPS Tracking Service

[Keegen]

I use Sandooi and it works well

Are you able to upload your data from your Storm to the web site? Sandooi (Smap) works well on my phone but I get an error message when I hit the Verification button so I'm not able to upload to the web site.

Instamapper is what I use:

Where Is Hawkins?

[Mystic333]

Instamapper has to be running in order for it to track. That limits the use as a source to find the phone if it is lost or stolen.

Are there any free GPS tracking apps that stay active all the time without having to open them?

[profshadow]

I've been using moostrax (moostrax.com) for a while and ever since the updated on the Bberry to 4.5.0.160 and the GPS seems to be "unlocked"

On Alltel, Bberry Pearl 8130

Unfortunately, all of Chris Moos' sites seem down right now and I can't seem to find out why yet.


BUT, it gets a great "TWO THUMBS UP" from me. Loads into Options and can start on power up, etc.

Nice, clean, simple.

Just hope it comes back up Real Soon Now!

Moostrax.com is back online!

what is wrong with google maps? i find it dead on every time!

[bgredjeep]

Google maps shows you where you are. It does not track where you have been. These apps are showing information that was plotted while traveling (GPS location, speed, altitude, etc) and putting it on a map.

I've used GPSED and GPS logger. Both work well, but IMO the ability to upload track information and share that with friends gives GPSED an edge over GPS Logger. Both allow you to export to a .gpx format for Google Earth. GPS logger is a bit more granular with the control of plotting intervals, where GPSED is just Unfiltered, low, and high filtering to adjust for the needs on the track. GPSED also allows you to share tracks with several social networking sites (I use Facebook) so it can post a link to the track that is uploaded to GPSED.com.
