About MyGPSLog
MyGPSLog is a free, ad-free GPS logging app for iOS. Record your journey as you explore trails, roads, or new destinations with just a tap, and export your tracks in multiple formats — CSV, GPX, or KML — to save or analyze your data in a way that suits you.
Designed for the modern adventurer, MyGPSLog combines simplicity with complete privacy. Recording continues in the background while you hike, ride, or drive, and every point is stored locally on your device. With zero ads and no data sent to the cloud, it offers a fully private tracking experience.
No accounts, no tracking, no data collection. Your tracks leave your phone only when you choose to export them.

Frequently Asked Questions
What can I record with MyGPSLog?
Any journey: hikes, trail rides, road trips, and daily drives. Tap record and MyGPSLog captures your track as you move — recording continues in the background, so the phone can ride in a pocket or on a mount.
Does MyGPSLog work without a cell signal?
Yes. Track recording uses satellite GPS rather than a data connection, and every point is stored locally on your phone — so you can keep logging a hike or drive far past the last bar of coverage.
Is MyGPSLog free, and do I need an account?
Yes, it is free to download on the App Store, and it is 100% ad-free. There is no sign-up and no account — install it and start recording.
What formats can I export my tracks in?
CSV, GPX, or KML. GPX is the universal exchange format for GPS apps and devices, KML opens in Google Earth, and CSV opens in any spreadsheet. Not sure which one you need? The GPX vs KML vs TCX vs FIT guide at GPX Analyzer breaks down what each format is best at.
What can I do with a GPX track after I export it?
Open it in the free browser tools at GPX Analyzer: the GPX analyzer charts your track's distance, elevation, and speed, and the GPX editor can trim points — handy for cutting the start and end of a track near your home before sharing it. Everything runs locally in your browser; nothing is uploaded.
Is my location data private?
Yes. All tracks are stored locally on your device — nothing is sent to the cloud, and there are no ads, no tracking, and no data collection. A track leaves your phone only when you choose to export it.
