* [OsmAnd gpx recording plugin](https://osmand.net/features?id=trip-recording-plugin#Online_tracking) (Android) is able to log to a custom URL with GET method. IOS version does not include recording plugin. Tested and approved.

|
* [GpsLogger](http://code.mendhak.com/gpslogger/#features) (Android) Very good ! The best IMHO. Setup in : Options -> Logging details -> Log to custom URL . Able to bufferize positions (**\***).
|
|
|
* [Owntracks](http://owntracks.org/) (IOS/Android) Both version work. This app does not work without google services installed on Android. Quite funny to provide an app for those who want to keep control of their tracking information and force them to be tracked by google services...

* [µlogger](https://f-droid.org/packages/net.fabiszewski.ulogger/) (Android) Very light. Able to bufferize positions (**\***). To use µlogger, set the µlogger URL provided by phonetrack-oc as the "server URL" and put **any** value (they won't be used) as username / password.

* [OpenGTS](http://opengts.org/) which is more a standard than an app. I successfully used [GpsLogger](http://code.mendhak.com/gpslogger/#features) (OpenGTS mode) and [CelltrackGTS/Free](http://www.geotelematic.com/CelltracGTS/Free.html) (a few bugs with this one).

## What is it ?
|
|
|
|
|
|
By default, there is no restriction and everyone who has the session's logging URL can choose whatever device name he wants. This means anyone can cheat on his identity. As the session's owner, if you want to prevent that, you can reserve some device names in PhoneTrack's user interface. To reserve a name means that only one person (that you choose) will be able to log with this name.

## How do i do it ?
|
|
|
|
|
|
To actually reserve a name : type the name in the reservation input field and type "ENTER". It will show you a "token" associated with the reserved name you just chose. Using this "token" as device name in a logging URL is now the ONLY way to log under the reserved name. This means anyone trying to use the reserved name directly in the logging URL will see his logging attempts refused.

## Example
|
|
|
|
|
|
I created a session to share positions with Alice and Bob. I want to make it impossible for Alice to log points with "Bob" a device name and Bob to log with "Alice" as device name.
