What software chap?

Capture with: github.com/aaronpk/Overland-… It’s in the App Store if you have faith that version hasn’t been tampered with. Requires custom endpoint, which is my own Rails app that processes and persists to PG with PostGis extension.

This is the only app on my phone which is permitted location access “Always”.

Does it mash the battery?

Yes. But I’m always charging with a portable charger. Which I lost one night when I was smashed. Which I recovered the next day by re-tracing my path from my recorded coordinates. Which is poetic enough to all be worth it.

Haha nice, what frequency is it recording?

Customisable.

But how often does it record points?

iOS doesn't guarantee delivery of location info at any time interval, those buttons on the settings screen expose all the controls iOS gives. In practice, at highest resolution, it collects up to one per second if you're moving, but if you aren't moving it slows down.

@aaronpk just seen your website. While the moving avatar is hilarious and pretty cool... does that seriously mean any website can access the gyroscope without requesting permission?
