Around 1 zooz each 100km.

You know why my gps doesn't start with this app? It tell me that the gps is off, but after I turn it on it doesn't search the signal.  My phone is a Nexus 4. Any ideas?

This morning it worked for about 75Km, then I turned it off, and when I reopened it, it didn't start.
My GPS was on, opening zooz the gps didn't start to look the signal, no icon on the phone bar, but as soon as I opened any GPS app or maps, the gps started to look at the signal.
So it's just like the gps doesn't recognize zooz as an app that need it.

thanks

Hi, I would to know if I need a wifi connection to mine, or can I use only the GPS??

Another Checkcoin.

Hoping this doesnt turn into an ICO

You need a mobile connection, how can you walking around or driving using a wifi? Unless you don't drive a car or a coach with wifi in.

Yeah sure!

I still don't understand how can you know i'm really moving
it shouldn't be that difficult to fake GPS data and earn ZOOZs
i guess also accelerometer data could be fake if you check it

It takes your movement only when the app is open, I tried to open the gps status app, and the zooz app was in background, so zooz didn't count my movement. You need to have it open not behind other apps.

I should have solved the problem, I used an app called Tasks, that allow me to force the gps on when I run it.

Splatters, can you send a screen shot of the settings menu to:   orens@lazooz.org

Also, when not seeing a search signal, are you moving or static?  when you're static it won't search for your GPS signal. 

The idea is that GPS consume a lot of battery, so in general it is turned off. Only when you're moving enough it turns on your GPS and start searching for its signal. The trigger for moving right now is when there's a change in your cell ID, but we'll improve it soon, perhaps by reading your accelerometer.

is this going to replace Waze ?

Well, indeed it's very natural that the same app the will match driver and riders to share rides, and later on will integrate ANY smart transportation solution, will also serve to navigate vehicles and more.   So in that sense, it's natural to expect that La'Zooz will either replace WAZE, or integrate with it.  But there's still a long way to go till then...

Now the problem seem solved, when I launch the GPS it start to look signal, probably I've unlocked something, or using the task app maybe.

Hi, I would to know if I need a wifi connection to mine, or can I use only the GPS??

Hi Matt9301, you need to have online connection and GPS turned on,  but can mine without having wifi available.

In some future instances the app might require you to have your wifi turned on as well for mining
(I'm not sure if it's already set up like that today or not, will check it out),  to be used for "proof of location"

For example, having your wifi turned on, the app may ask you to report which wifi it sees in real time.
Comparing the app response on that, it can rule out bots which won't report on wifi that is known to exist
at their claimed location.

good, I think is very important to avoid any possibility to cheat or create fake movements.

Thank you for the answer, so I can't mine this coins because I haven't an offert for online connections on my smartphone! Whatever good idea!

Next week I'm going to do at least 2 zooz per day...
