Overview

OMN4 uses GPS on mobile devices to show your live position on the map screen and to record tracklogs. This section explains setup, recording, controls, marker accuracy, and the platform limits that matter before you rely on GPS outdoors.

What You Can Do

• Show your live location on the map screen.
• Keep the map centred on your position.
• Record a tracklog while you are moving.
• Save recorded tracklogs into your chosen folder.

In This Section

• GPS Setup covers permissions and mobile settings.
• Start a Tracklog explains how to begin recording.
• Tracklog Controls explains pause, resume, stop, and recentre behaviour.
• Tracklog Settings covers the tracklog folder and platform notes.
• GPS Marker and Accuracy explains the live marker states.

Important Limits

• GPS and tracklog recording are mobile workflows on iOS and Android.
• On Windows and macOS, use OMN4 mainly for planning, reviewing, editing, and managing recorded data.
• Background recording depends on device permissions and operating-system rules.
• Android and iOS handle background location differently, so check the platform notes before a long day out.
