Today, we’re starting a new blog series called Sports Tracker Tips – useful advice on how to use our app, online service and hardware to help you get the most out of your tracking experience.
First up is the most important tip we could think of: creating your own Sports Tracker account!
Why is creating an account so important? Because it is the only way we can safely store your workouts. Without an account, your workouts are only saved on your phone, which means they’re gone for good if you update your phone or happen lose it to a thief or a toilet. When you track with an account, on the other hand, your workouts are automatically synced to our online service. You can then log in on any phone and Sports Tracker will retrieve your training history from the online service in a matter of seconds.
In addition to getting automatic backups of all your workouts, signing up allows you to connect with family and friends, share your workouts with the Sports Tracker community and analyze your data in depth on any computer at www.sports-tracker.com.
Nothing hurts like losing your hard-earned workout data. That is why we recommend you create an account already today and remind your friends to do the same. You can create your account on our website at www.sports-tracker.com or directly in the app using your email or Facebook. It’s as easy as 1-2-3.
Happy tracking!

Hi
Where can I find possibilities to sort what activity is interesting me in a period? Now I have all activities, before it was possible to select e.g. only running.

I saved the route as a GPX file actually exists, then copied it to my laptop and then I tried to mark the GPS donated by Fuji camera are pictures. The images exif file GPS interface also wrote, however, the path does not appear as a saved google maps paths are decorated with pictures. :P Why?
PS. I do not think I was wrong, I did the same SymDVR aps, GPS gpx files and saved it (if my server online, can be viewed: http://goo.gl/maps/ckg8n )
Used programs: Microsoft Pro Photo Tools, GPicSync, Sports Tracker (SymDVR), etc …

Hey, can you submit a support request so we can best assist you? http://support.sports-tracker.com/customer/portal/emails/new Thanks! :)

benissimo, bravi, sono tre anni che sono iscritto al vostro sito e sono contento. sono deluso solo dal fatto che il nuovo telefono NOkia 820 con WP l’applicazione è molto scarsa; prima con SYMBIAN aveva molte più possibilità, ad esempio anche se si scaricava la batteria del telefono non si perdeva l’allenamento e appena ricaricato il telefono si poteva salvare nel server, ora … invece è perso e questo dispiace
arrivederci e buon lavoro
Mauro

This does not apply to us who already have an account, right? I wish you would send out a Tweet telling us that you have improved your servers and the app won’t be crashing anymore.
Vilma / Team Sports Tracker
Hey Al, since you have an account already, you’re all good! And we really hope to find a solution to the crashing problem.

How to get sports-tracker looks like on the picture
Vilma / Team Sports Tracker
Hi Sven, you can head on to http://beta.sports-tracker.com to give our new beta website a try. There are some important features still missing, but they’re in the works and will be added in the next few weeks we hope :)

This picture shows the new website or what? I have the “old” one… Or is it just an illustration?
Thanks for the blog and your hard work anyway, love your app!!!
Vilma / Team Sports Tracker

New HTML5 website screenshot? It looks nice ;-) when will it be available?? has been a long and tiring wait for it. Weeks, months? How Long Should I Wait? And please, do not answer me “soon” hehe ;-D
Vilma / Team Sports Tracker

Very nice ;-) I hope that in section “explore” ( http://beta.sports-tracker.com/#/explore/ ) you can add more map layers. One that should be added is google Satellite. I think that you’re using open street map but google aerial imagery are important too.
I hope that facebook sharing could improve too and be like endomondo and runkeeper
