3. Lock Geo Tracker
Section titled “3. Lock Geo Tracker”It is also recommended to “lock” Geo Tracker while recording a track.
Especially if you want to turn on the recording for an extended period (for example, when you just put your phone into a backpack for the whole day).
To do this, open the list of recent applications (a small square at the bottom panel), find Geo Tracker, and long-tap it. A menu will appear with a list of actions.

In this menu, there is a “lock” icon – tap it. You can unlock Geo Tracker when you finish the recording similarly.
