I noticed there was a lack of location tracking apps that actually work on Windows 10. There are some WP8 apps, but they cannot properly run in the backgorund.

So I made Distance Tracker, an app that uses Windows 10 latest functionalites so the app is sure to keep running in the background, even when it is minimized (PC) or in the task switcher (mobile)! So you can keep using your device, use aother apps, .. Distance Tracker will keep running in the background (unless you close it).

Features:

• Track location in the background
• Set the speed in seconds of how fast locations are tracked
• Set units (Kilometers/miles)
• Get history and details of your trips
• Keeps working when other location apps like Maps are used

I just did a test car ride of 30 minutes and it works great, I compared it to Google Maps and the distance is quite the same, so it's accurate. The app was minimized and screen locked the whole ride.
