I have not seen the application crash as others have stated, but two things: 1) As with other reviews, they are correct, there is NO way for you to completely shut it off that I can see, other than going in to settings manually and turning off location settings for the app. Even if you "kill" the app in the multi-tasking bar, it continues to run.... and even if you then go in to kill the process, it continues to appear to be accessing the GPS. 2) My major gripe... it does NOT update in the background for long... I dont know how, what, why, or when... but say you put the frequency on "15 minutes", and you background the app... I will normally get an update 15 minutes later, but then not again until I launch the app again. I know it has been said that "it checks your location with tower data, and only when it determines that youve "moved", then it will kick the GPS on and update your location to save battery." So far, that doesnt seem to be true for me. If anyone has any hot tips to make it really work in the background, Im all ears. Anyway, updating in the background was the main reason I got this app... and it doesnt appear to do that correctly, so if you too are looking for that, continue looking. Other than those, its a great Latitude app, with potential. Its a 5-star app, but with each of my gripes above, Im dinging it a star for each.
