 Hey everyone,

  New build just shipped with 7 fixes targeting the "tracking stopped working" reports we've been getting. Open Play
  Store, find GigLedger, tap Update (give it a few minutes if it doesn't show right away — Play Store rolls updates out
   gradually).

  What's new in v1.0.6:

  • Auto-tracking now properly walks you through every permission it needs (no more silent failures where the toggle
  says "on" but nothing's actually running)
  • If your phone interrupts a trip mid-drive (battery saver, swipe from recents, etc.), the miles are now
  automatically recovered when you reopen the app — no more lost trips
  • A persistent car icon now appears in your status bar whenever GigLedger is monitoring, so you can tell at a glance
  whether it's working
  • Manual Start Trip is more resilient to being killed in the background

  Samsung users — please read this carefully 🙏

  Samsung's battery manager (One UI) aggressively kills tracking apps by default, even legitimate ones. Even with the
  v1.0.6 fixes, you'll likely need to flip these 7 settings before tracking works reliably. Takes about 2 minutes:

  1. Settings → Apps → GigLedger → Battery → tap "Unrestricted"
  2. Settings → Battery → Background usage limits → "Never sleeping apps" → tap + → add GigLedger
  3. Same screen — make sure GigLedger is NOT in "Sleeping apps" or "Deep sleeping apps"
  4. Settings → Apps → GigLedger → Permissions → Location → "Allow all the time" (not "While using the app")
  5. Settings → Apps → GigLedger → Permissions → Physical activity → "Allow"
  6. Settings → Apps → GigLedger → Notifications → "On"
  7. Settings → Device care → Auto-optimization → toggle off

  After all 7 are done, swipe GigLedger out of recents and reopen it.

  What I need from you:

  1. Update to v1.0.6
  2. (Samsung only) flip the 7 settings above
  3. Try a trip — either tap Start Trip manually, or just drive somewhere with auto-tracking on
  4. Reply here or DM me at gigledg...@gmail.com if anything still misbehaves — especially if the car icon
  disappears from your status bar mid-drive (that means the OS killed the service despite the settings)

  Thanks again for sticking with this. Android tracking is genuinely the hardest part of the app to get right — every
  Samsung phone behaves a little differently — and your feedback is what's making it work.

Salut ! Oui, pour le moment l’application n’est disponible qu’aux États-Unis uniquement. C’est à cause des paramètres de langue et des configurations de taxes. On travaille dessus pour la rendre disponible en France et dans d’autres pays très bientôt ! 😊 N’hésite pas si tu as d’autres questions !
