Does anyone use any sort of GPS app for any Series 60 ver 5

Ok,

I've got one of those shiny new Sony Ericsson Satios which uses the same OS as the N97 and nokia 5300? (Symbian S60 ver 5)

Does anyone know of any GPS apps that would track/record a route I've ridden etc?

You can get nokia sports tracker.

You will need to get a developers certificate though (I did it on my Samsung Omnia).

It's a little involved, if you are a geek should be ok.

Do you just want to record time and distance or the route that you actually took?

Sports Tracker etc. will do the former.. ViewRanger will do the latter..

I'm wanting to record the route.

That's a little misleading, sports tracker will do both. Time, Distance, Route, Speed, Altitue etc.

Agreed.. it will record the route but as far as i can see you have to then upload it to the SportsTracker website or export it as GPX to be able to view it overlaid on a map.

If you're serious about using mapping/tracking software, then Viewranger's a great choice.

I got mine at a 20% discount back in August, £66 IIRC for Southern England & Wales and it's a fantastic piece of software.

Also, I don't think SportsTracker's available for the v5 touchscreen software (at least I've not been able to find it on Ovi!)

I used it on an i8910 which is a v5 touchscreen.

i bought the Over the Air Download version it cost my £15 and you just download the tiles you wont when you want
