Improvements to CyberTracker Classic

Hi folks,

We are trying out some improvements to the CyberTracker Classic mobile application. If you are able to test them, please do so. The APK download is here: Download | CyberTracker Wiki - build 596.

The changes are:

  1. Use the new system screens (GPS, Options, Text edit, Take GPS)
  2. Touch scrolling on long lists

Feedback welcome. We expect to push this out in the coming weeks assuming there are no blocking issues.

Cheers,
-Justin

Thanks Justin for this “easter egg” … I will do my best :wink:

my device: Huawei P30 lite, Android 12

Installation APK: I tryed to install via TotalCommander. And this was not working. So I’ve deinstalled CyberTracker. After this I got error message. Than I install with other app (Files) and it works. May be my mistake was usage of Total Commander.

Installation of projects. Works fine with QR-Code of Published projects and also with link for Webinstall.

Collect data: No problem in comparision to older versions.

Save data on map: ok. like before

Save data with coordinate: new look and feel with additional screen and 1st Problem: “Skip GPS” does not work and “x” too. Or does it take very long time?
If in old versions GPS was not available and I skip it, CyberTracker was showing a offline Map and I could set the coordinates by flag.
In this version it shows a online map with location. But this makes no sence for me: If GPS is not good enough and I’m not in mobile data network, the system hangs totally.

Send data via “Send control”: 3rd Problem: Stands long time on “Ready” but meanwhile the data are sent. (As shown in upload queue.) If I leave my send screen and come back, “no data” is shown right.

Options: New look and feel … I like it.

JSON data: 4th Problem: very different to past version. Here some example:

new:
{“feature”:{“geometry”:{“coordinates”:[12.9566243,50.738628],“type”:“Point”},“properties”:{“altitude”:null,“appName”:“Bauhof V0.1.6”,“ctVersion”:“3.515”,“dateTime”:“2026-04-06T17:32:29.000+02:00”,“dbName”:“%Database%BauhofBurkhardtsdorf_WP.MDB”,“deviceId”:“3ac6d91a-2a7f-0a56-0000-000000000000”,“id”:“b830bf1e-f5b7-9845-b23d-2280934ad470”,“latitude”:50.738628,“longitude”:12.9566243,“sighting”:{“M”:“H”,“O”:“G”,“T”:“ja, bitte entfernen”,“W”:“Betriebsbereitschaft herstellen”}},“type”:“Feature”}}

“sighting” contains only the 1st letter from the JSON-Id of elements.

old:
{“feature”:{“geometry”:{“coordinates”:[12.947027825006334,50.75308887191791],“type”:“Point”},“properties”:{“accuracy”:1.9,“altitude”:581.9825192438439,“appName”:“Bauhof V0.1.6”,“ctVersion”:“3.515”,“dateTime”:“2026-03-26T09:13:46.999+01:00”,“dbName”:“%Database%BauhofBurkhardtsdorf_WP.MDB”,“deviceId”:“174be569-1236-5367-0000-000000000000”,“id”:“d00878ad-4fcc-1a41-8a04-e9262eb40696”,“latitude”:50.75308887191791,“longitude”:12.947027825006334,“sighting”:{“Foto”:"/9j/4A… ",“Mitarbeiter”:“Holger”,“Objekt”:“Parkbank, Picknickplatz”,“Was ist zu tun?”:“Anstreichen; Reparieren”}},“type”:“Feature”}}

Text edit and edit URL in Webinstall: 1st I see black box and must go back with system back button (not CyberTrackers back), that I see edit screen and can edit. In sum the additional edit screen is disturbing me a little bit.

Cheers, Holger

Thanks Holger, I am going to transition to email with you, because it is easier to work in.

I have updated to build 597 on the web site:

Please check it out if you have the chance.
