About GPX Recorder
Ever want to record your track while hiking? Use this app to record your GPS location track, and save in GPX file format for later sharing or analysis. Good for hiking, biking, or driving.
Note: To ensure uninterrupted recording on Android 6.0+, you need to turn off battery optimization for this app. Go to Settings > Apps & notifications > Special app access > Battery optimization, select "GPX Recorder" from the list, and choose "Don't optimize". Otherwise, Android's Doze mechanism might kick in, and force the app to sleep while recording.

Simple effective
Does what it says really well. Thanks! Don't like asking for things on great free apps but it would be cool to include the accuracy/satellite count in the logs. Might break the file spec though. Regardless, excellent lightweight app. Thank you!
Faultless performance on S7. Opened file in A-GPX Tracker with great results. Very well done Devs, much appreciated.
Simple and very reliable. Works every time without fail.
Simple one button operation. Generates a .gpx file of your movements. Output frequency is 1s without fail. Great app!
The best GPX recorder out there. I just disabled battery management and this app tracked my roadtrip like a champ!
