Description

From the listing uploaded by “appupdater”.

Distance meter is an application that allows you to track and measure your traveled distance via GPS, in different units such as meters, kilometers, feet, and miles. You can also measure straight-line distance, which is useful if, for example, you want to know how far you are from point A to point B, regardless of how many times you turned or changed direction. All data about your traveled distances and straight-line distances are saved in a database, so you can review your distance history at any time. The application also allows you to delete and edit old data. Distance meter is easy to use, with an intuitive user interface that allows you to start measuring distance in just a few steps. Whether you're a runner, cyclist, or just want to track your traveled distances throughout the day, GPS Distance meter will help you stay motivated and achieve your physical activity goals.

Distance meter APK: questions and answers

Can I install this APK over the version I already have?

Only if it is signed with the same certificate as the copy on your phone and isn't an older version. If Android says “App not installed”, the certificates differ; uninstalling your copy first works but deletes its data unless it is backed up.

Is the Distance meter APK safe?

No one can promise that a file is safe, but some things can be checked. The source store rates this file Trusted. After downloading, check that the file's MD5 is b419ef35e647d22b1512f0f5501a855e.
