Does this exist?

The app is designed for metal detecting enthusiasts who want to track their search progress and ensure they cover all areas of a site.

The app uses GPS and geofencing technology to track the user's location and record the areas they have searched.

The app displays a map view that shows the user's current location as well as the areas they have searched, highlighted in red.

The app uses a 4-foot geofencing radius to detect when the user enters or exits an area, and records the location data accordingly.

The app records the search progress in real-time and updates the map view as the user moves around the site.

Sorry for the AI speak. I'm lazy now that I don't have to think.

I think the developer abandoned the app. Hasn't been updated, I get a message saying it won't work on my phone because it's too new.

I have used an app called Fields Area Measure. It's for measuring acreage, but might also work for tracing your path in real time.

BTW, thanks for bringing up this idea. I recently bought a metal detector. I haven't un-boxed it yet, waiting until the snow is gone where I am.

Let’s get it made! I think this would be wildly useful.

I searched 'app for tracking metal detecting ' and found a few results that may be helpful. Here's one: https://detecthistory.com/guides/best-metal-detecting-apps/

I'm an oldfag, not gonna be doing any coding ...but will happily beta test whatever you build.

I want one too! Think it could have some entertainment value
