WPP K9 Tracker

WPP K9 Tracker is an app for handlers and schools working with scent-tracking dogs — mantrailing, IGP, K9 sport, nosework and search & rescue.

One person lays a trail, another trails it with the dog — the app records the GPS route, measures the dog's accuracy, and gives you tools to learn, analyse and compete.

FEATURES

• Record GPS trails in two modes (laying / trailing), even in the background with the screen off.
• A real map (satellite, streets, terrain, hybrid) — see exactly where the dog worked.
• Accuracy metrics: the dog's deviation from the laid trail, distance, time, efficiency.
• Articles (objects on the trail) with photos, start and finish markers.
• Live training rooms: participants' live positions on the map, chat, voice, route drawing.
• Course / instructor mode: run a group, statistics, history.
• Rankings and competition: within a course and global/regional (opt-in, under a nickname).
• Tracking conditions: weather and analysis of how wind and humidity affect scent work.
• Achievements and badges, dog profiles, statistics.
• Export a trail to PDF (with a map) and GPX, offline maps.
• 9 languages, light/dark mode.

Trails are saved locally on your phone first — they work with no signal (forest, field).

The app uses location, including in the BACKGROUND, to keep recording the trail while the screen is off. This is core functionality during scent-tracking training.
