Anyone know of an app for android that would mark where you're left off and bring you back to the exact same spot? All the ones I've found mark you trail but don't lead you back where you started

I've used Lose-Me-Not in the past but it seems to be an abandoned app at this point. All it does is mark a start point and then give a constant heading/distance to that point.

 

Polaris GPS looks like a much more commonly used app that will also do what you need. You'll just need to mark a waypoint on the map and use that as a target to navigate to.

Cant you just follow your route backwards?

Apparently youve never ridden where I ride. You get lost QUICK!!!

lol  I meant on the app.  If it marks your trail, can't you just look at it and follow it backwards?

Yes I could BUT where we go a lot of times we would cross several times and it would be a mess to try to follow all the lines. Guess Ill have to bite the bullet and buy a gps tracker. 

Oh, yeah that'd be confusing

The Google maps on the Galaxy s3 works pretty good. All you have to do is put it on the bicycle setting, know where your starting point is and hold your finger on it till the little red thing pops up. Then hit "start navigation"

Can't you just mark your starting point then have it give you the navigation back to that point?

Nice Ill try that plus I have the S3. I see from your avatar you ride. Wanna meet up sometime. Always looking for new guys to ride with.

You know I bet that would work. Just wonder how accurate any of these maps would be in the middle of nowhere, Anyway, SPortsmans Guide had a GPS on sale fro $26 so I decided to try it out. If it works good at least I wont have to bring my phone along.
