Course short description
In this course we are creating an application for recording running or walking routes using Gps. We are studying the use ofOSM (Open Street Maps)to display the map on the smartphone screen, add markers, draw the route, time to complete the route, distance and average speed. We use theRoomdatabase and library to save routes. We use a timer to count down time. We also create a service for obtaining location in the application to work in the background. Let's learn how to correctly add permissions to use location in different versions of Android. We add settings for choosing the color of the route as well as choosing the speed of updating the location. After completing this course, you will understand how to add maps Open Street Mapsto your application and also how to work with Gps, Service, Permissions, Fragments, PreferenceScreen, Room. The application can be developed further (for those who are interested, a second part will be released).
