Would it be possible to get a widget for starting and stopping Live Tracking ?
Gathering feedback
Would it be possible to get a widget for starting and stopping Live Tracking ? I use the tracking quite alot and it is a little cumbersome to start/stop. A widget would be just great. Thanks - Locus is great...
I like this idea 
I'd like this very much also, also with the possibility to add widgets for different profiles.
The possibility to start and stop live tracking would enable tracking client visits etc, especially if extended to multiple profiles.

Interesting idea.
Because there is currently (at least as I know) no simple usable public service for Locus Live tracking, this feature currently have no big support from dev team side.
Anyway this may change. For now I'll leave this idea open to see how many people is interested in improving of Live tracking

Would be be possible to do this through the API ? are there any examples of how to do a widget for the Locus API. I'm not much good at Android SDK but I would have a try and would be happy to share. :-)

Hello Sean,
this is very interesting idea. Unfortunately Locus API is currently working in this way only to track recording, not Live tracking.
There is quite more tasks to do around Live tracking. Except this, there is missing some security mechanism, more variables, easier configuration and more.
For me it's good news last weeks, that I see bigger and bigger interest in this feature. If this will continue, I'm sure, that I'll do improvements in this area during next months.

Have to bring back this idea and want to ask for a similar solution.
Currently it's possible to set "autostart" for a live tracking profile.
Unfortunately the record widget ignores this.
My question now:
After tap record on the widget - is it possible to check for an livetracking autostart profile and start live tracking too?

Not exactly what this topic require, but since next version will be possible for every recording profile define, which live tracking profile should start/stop together with track recording.

including start record from widget? ...and stop?
it sounds like so. :)

if anyone is still interested in 5 year old request, the new tasker locus plugin can achieve this easily now...
