The profile page shows your workout summary for all your exercises in the "Workout Summary" graph but only displays shared workouts in "Latest workouts" section. Even when looking at your own profile, you see it "as others would see it". To display your private workouts, use the Dashboard.
We're investigating various import/export features, stay tuned.
Photos fed to the service from your terminal (using "upload to service" function in your Sports Tracker application) are automatically positioned to the track according to their time stamp.
Photos can also be positioned manually on the map by the using manual "photo placement tool"
No, the Nokia Sports Tracker Online team does not moderate the content at all. The material shown is under category "User Generated Content". However, we reserve right to hide/remove inappropriate material (e.g. photos, comments or other items). If you find some material offensive, please let us know.
For viewing the content on Nokia Sports Tracker Online you need a Web browser. Mozilla Firefox is recommended.
For participating and uploading your own tracks you need Nokia Sports Tracker application installed on your Nokia phone (S60 3rd edition). If you don't have a phone, you can manually upload your existing tracks in common "GPX" data format (import functionality has been tested using GPX files generated by Garmin(tm) devices).
Here's v0.9 of an instruction leaflet, which will guide through some basic steps: NST USER GUIDE v0.9 [pdf]. We're working on a more comprehensive but still easy to read multi-lingual user guide. Hopefully this will be ready soon.
Stay tuned, we're working on this. See the question related to APIs above. We will also provide a sample code for doing this.
Private data is something that only you can see yourself after logging into your personal user account. The "Friends" option enables you to share the data (tracks, photos, comments, etc.) between the people in your "Friends" list. Public information is visible to all other users. The choice is yours: you can change the visibility status of your content at any time.
Please feel free to send us feedback. We'll take a look at your proposal and then see what can be done.
No. Commercial use is prohibited. But if you have something in mind, please contact us and we'll see what can be done.
GPS, "Global Positioning System", is a satellite based navigation setup used to pinpoint your location.
Because the position information is calculated from signals received from GPS satellites orbiting the earth at very high altitude, any obstacle to the sky can affect the positioning performance. The situation is particularly bad in cities with buildings blocking the view to the sky ("urban canyons").
We recommend Nokia LD-4W. Nokia Sports Tracker supports internal GPS receivers built into phones as well as pretty much any external Bluetooth-equipped GPS receiver.
If the recording is cut off for some reason (for example, if the phone runs out of power while recording), the exercise file will be missing a valid ending time stamp. This means the summary view shown is missing data from the last few minutes of the track, although track plot is correct. The solution to this is to always stop recording your track by pressing "stop".
Let us know and we'll do a fix (and you get extra credit on our internal top-testers list). We're in the "beta" phase, and there will be updates rolling out every now and then.
Invite people to your "friends" list, and try all kinds of things with the app. Feel free to let us know if you come up with a really cool use case. We keep a highly unofficial "Top 10" list on our office whiteboard. Maybe we'll publish this list of great tracks some day and maybe you'll find yourself there (if this happens, we will OK this with you first and we might even send you a small gift).
