Android Client - Community Knowledge Base

Post by pvaladares
Hello!

After the Monster Mood was released, the Waze team told community to look deep in the files - a hint to discover correct voice command to activate this hidden mood.
A side effect was users started to get interested in other files, namely the 'preferences' file.

Because there is no existing thread, about this subject, I had the initiative make a kick off start :-)

Let the discussion start!

\Waze\gps

If "GPS.CSV Tracker" enabled in the preferences file as below,

Code: Select all

GPS.CSV Tracker: yes
Whenever velocity is higher than 0 and precision better than 120m, data will be saved in a CSV file with the format:

GPS_track_DDMMYY__HH_MM.csv

Code: Select all

DD = day
MM = month
HH = hour
MM = minute

Note: If MM < 10min then it will be saved just as M (example: 9min)
