Elevation Tracker 2.6.5

Elevation Tracker is a fitness tracking app that focuses on monitoring climbing and descending activities. It provides detailed information including basic metrics such as time, speed, and distance, current elevation, accumulated climbing and descending data, elevation profile, route map, as well as heart rate and time spent in four training zones (when connected with an Apple Watch or chest strap).

When paired with an Apple Watch, Elevation Tracker stands out by presenting all the essential data in a user-friendly manner, with the exception of the elevation profile and map. This app offers comprehensive insights that are easily accessible on your wrist for detailed activity tracking.

After completing an activity, users can save it to their history, share route summaries and profile images via email, transfer GPX data to other applications, or enhance details using an online elevation database. Additionally, the feature allows for segment-specific analysis by placing range selectors on the profile.

Utilizing GPS technology for determining elevation, Elevation Tracker maintains decent accuracy during outdoor activities, despite being more precise with location tracking. Not intended for indoor (stair climbing) or stationary (treadmill) use, this app efficiently operates in the background mode or when the device is locked. Users can run Elevation Tracker simultaneously with other fitness apps, such as one for real-time monitoring, another for social sharing, and a third for emergency tracking.

Note that prolonged use of GPS in the background may impact battery life; however, modern smartphones typically possess sufficient capacity to sustain this feature throughout an activity session.
