Default can this track real time?

i am really worried about my teenage daughter. can this solution help me track her movements real time? Also I am not very techy. Can anyone tell me exactly what to do to download this on to her pearl? I know i'll need to buy a gps receiver. Does the receiver automatically track multiple pearl users eg, both my daughters have pearls, will it read both pearls in the vicinity? Also what is the distance from phone to gps receiver to be effective. thanx for your help

I didn't see this anywhere on the forum. It's a simple app. Took a little while to get it installed on my pearl, but then it was easy to connect to the bluetooth GPS. Allows for track logs to be exported to SD Card as .kml, .gpx, or .csv files. Shows basic trip info, distance, average speed, average elevation.

Took a nice 5 mile run this afternoon with the puck in one jacket pocket and the pearl in the other, and I watched a flyover of my route on Google earth about 3 minutes after I got home.

I haven't tried using a kml file, but the gpx files work great. Simply export the track log as a .gpx file, open google earth, then open the gpx file.[/QUOTE
