Notice: This article discusses the differences between TripLog Drive and Beacon.
TripLog Drive: TripLog Drive™ captures GPS data and transmits it to the TripLog App (offline/online) for processing through Bluetooth. It detects when your trips start and stop, and allows trip classification. Waypoints transmitted within 2 seconds.
TripLog Beacon: Coupled with an iBeacon device using Nearby Technology, the TripLog app detects when your trips start and stop with accurate mileage tracking and certainty.
