TrackRadar

Xamarin/C# app for Android which helps you in your bicycle trips. It lets you load GPX track and then it plays audio whenever you are off-track or you lost GPS signal.

Credits

Single sonar ping sound is extracted from the file: http://www.zedge.net/ringtone/1419653/ KDE_Error audio file is converted from KDE3 sounds.

Building

Please use Visual Studio 2017 or compatible tool. You need GPX library: https://github.com/macias/Gpx

Rationale

I need moderately priced, e-ink, around 5" device with GPS and ability to run custom apps. The problem is it does exist, there are some options like:

  • Yotaphone -- too expensive,

  • dedicated bicycle GPS -- nano screens,

  • DIY hybrids -- e-reader with wifi getting GPS data from smartphone.

All of them means paying extra cash for far from perfect solution. Until the dream device comes true I decided to re-use what I have -- Android Gingerbread smartphone -- and since it is completely unreadable in the sun I opted for audible feedback.
