I want to say Thank You to all who replied. I/we are still
evaluating the softwares suggested, and while "free" (as in beer)
wasn't mentioned (and is an appreciated feature!) some of the
software which costs a modest price ($1.99) also seem worthy of
consideration. This research helps me/us (
I like MotionX-GPS for recording tracks. You can easily export and share
them in GPX format via email. It's not free, but for a regular mapper it
would be $2 well spent.
You can also use OSM map tiles in the app, although I'm pretty sure that
it's MotionX's own rendering, and it's not usually very

As far as I can tell, MyTracks is a super-simple application that doesn't
seem like it would introduce any Google IP -- though maybe you or others
have better ideas of how such a thing might occur. I've never seen a track

Besides having all the issues Keypadmapper has squared, how do you
prevent IP leakage from google to OSM? For example do you know if it
employs any "lock on road" or similar technology?

Keep in mind that keypadmapper is spyware :-) In all seriousness, it
uploads locations and cell ids to a public database whenever it's
running. If you're out explicitly doing mapping, that might be fine at
times, but it's

For most of my data collection, I find that the built in photos app is
actually all I use. Each photo is geotagged, which comes in handy if I

I use Bluetooth to get the data from OSMTracker or OsmAn to my laptop.

Thank you, Marc! I "prefer" (as it's familiar, though maybe old
school) a dedicated GPS and a USB cable, too. But then there ARE

The latter two do not show a map.
The first one does.
Still prefer a dedicated GPS-device, in my case a Garmin 10 + photo camera.

I agree that GoMap! is a top iOS editor. I'm specifically looking
for a path, a method: data collected (from the GPS on an iOS device,
like a iPhone) and then uploaded (USB cable, WiFi, Bluetooth...) to a
laptop.
Looking at Strava, Galileo, Sygic, MAPS.ME and Cyclemeter GPS now.
