Hi all
I am going to go on a 8-9hr solo cycle ride and want my family to be able to track me for their peace of mind. What's the best way to do this?
I was thinking subscribing to Strava Premium so that I can get the "Share My Activity Status" function enabled so they can track me on Strava. The issue I see here is for 8-9 hrs I'm not sure if my phone will have enough battery using the GPS and Data (even with the screen turned off). I'm using an iPhone 6.
If this is not possible - what other apps do you recommend? I was searching and came across the Road ID app which leaves 'bread crumbs' for people to track you, however, the app looks awful with bad reviews - not sure if it's worth using.
Thanks in advance
