My Track :: An Android App by Google


I bid apology for any mistakes you found here, as I had to write this article in a hurry. Please feel free to comment or contact us regarding clarifications, suggestions & complaints.. etc.

Well, Google a well known top-rated multinational corp, is a group who always focus on its users.  Since then the start from their search engine & now they own an anonymous number of products such YouTube, Android, Blogger… etc. And almost half of them are benefiting users with no cost (approx 70% – 85% free for users). I should say, that I’m a die-hard fan of Google as it serves me in many ways. I also believe that it serves you the same.

Today, I’m going to write about an application which was there from a long time but most us never known nor used it. Well, It;s My Tracks which were officially released by google itself. To be honest, I did not know about this app until my buddy Arvind (a newbie android developer from India) shows it to me. This application is nothing fancy, but it does wonders.
