It sounds like the app requires some manual intervention to start/stop tracking, is there a way to make it work like google location history where it’s always fully automatic and in the background without extra battery drain?
Some of the other apps I’ve tried before for my traccar instance had a lot of battery drain or would randomly stop working in the background, I don’t remember which ones I tried as it was awhile ago.





It has super budget spec hardware so probably not great, mediatek SOCs are often pretty bad, and the screen being only 400 nits means it’ll be completely unusable in sunlight…
For the price I’d say get a used Pixel and throw Graphene on it, would be much nicer hardware.
