Keeps GPS lock. However long it takes to achieve, once it has it, this app keeps the phone from loosing it due to GPS deactivation. So whenever you open some app that needs GPS data, it is ready. Battery usage goes up, but that is inevitable from keeping the GPS in use constantly.

Looks good. You can use a script to launch this when gps turned on. I use cameralert and use it to start this app. Although since this is a service, why not make the service boot up to full power when user turns on gps! Real (known) GPS problem with note 3 on kit Kat. Hope this may fix/minimise the issue.

App works well and does the job as described (most of these GPS tools don't...). Five stars with on/off widget and/or option to autostart with other apps, such as Google Maps.

Sygic was going to sleep after a minute when I switched the screen off, no matter what I changed in the settings either of android or sygic itself. Thanks to this app it now functions properly and I can now use voice Navi on headset while phone is locked in my pocket. Great!

Gt-i9100 was taking anything up to 30 min to get lock. This ap reduced it to less than a minute often a few seconds. Battery drain not an issue using in car navigation with usb power.

The app stops when the screen off even you did not click on stop service, hoping for app improvement so it will not automatically stop even the screen is off because gps conection to radars is sometimes very hard
