Hallo! Bonjour! Hola! Ciao! Olá! Moi!

Sports Tracker for Android is now fluent in German, French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese and Finnish thanks to our team of volunteer translators! Thanks again for all the hard work!

Switching to one of the new languages: Once you install the new build and set your system language to one of the new supported languages Sports Tracker will also switch to your chosen language. Simple, eh? :)

A new (years) resolution

In addition to going multilingual our Android app now also sports more pixels as we’ve added support for devices with the whopping 720×1280 resolution – such as the Galaxy Nexus by Google and Samsung.

Bug fixes in Android v.1.8.5

• Voice feedback triggered properly when using miles
• Lap view shows mile based laps properly
• GPS disabled when using Indoor activity
• Image capturing fixed for Samsung Galaxy Mini
• Visual fine tuning
