Download and get started with Autogear Tracker

Updated Stefan Jacobsen

Autogear Tracker is the app that logs your trips automatically when you use Autogear Basic. You download it once, grant it the right permissions — then it works in the background.

What is Autogear Tracker?

Tracker is an app you download and almost forget you have. It records trips automatically in the background together with the Basic tracking tag — you don't need to open it or start and stop trips yourself. If you have Autogear Basic, you need Tracker for trips to be logged.

How to get started

  1. Open the App Store (iPhone) or Google Play (Android) and download Autogear Tracker.
  2. Log in with your username and password from Autogear.
  3. Grant the permissions the app requests (see below).

These three must be in place — otherwise automatic logging won't start:

  • Bluetooth turned on — so the app can find the tag
  • Location set to "Always" (not "Only while using the app")
  • Motion & fitness allowed

These make logging more stable, but aren't strictly required:

  • Notifications allowed — so you can see the app scanning
  • Let the app run in the background / turn off battery saver for the app

How to get to the settings:

  • Easiest — in the app: open the Account screen in Autogear Tracker. It shows the status of each permission, and the app sends you straight to the right setting if something is missing.
  • iPhone: or go to Settings, scroll down to Autogear Tracker, and set each permission. For location: choose Location → "Always".
  • Android: or go to Settings → Apps → Autogear Tracker → Permissions. For location: choose "Allow all the time". Battery saver is under Apps → Autogear Tracker → Battery.

Autogear Tracker – permissions

Once the permissions are in place, the app does the rest itself: it detects the tag over Bluetooth, logs trips in the background and GPS-tags the route. To save battery, it rests when you're stationary and wakes up automatically when you drive — short pauses are completely normal. Don't force-quit the app.
