We gave something like this a shot (and missed). Collecting background GPS data and transmitting it to a third party service in the background is currently hard and battery intensive. Highlight does it though!

There are some good ideas in here. Thank you.

I wish you the best of luck! Your product is one of those things that everyone will have sooner or later.

It seems like this could be a good use case for geofences.
