Anyone use them? I have an Android phone and have been reading about them.
How do you overlay video on to the app? You need special software? My camera will be a Flip HD. Trackmaster looks pretty good. How do you get around having that big Ass phone holder on the front glass? Please show your setups. |

I would recommend getting some kind of external GPS if you are serious about using a phone as real data logging. In my AX experience, Harry's Lap Timer by itself, on a iPhone 4S is just too inaccurate. Start and stop points not set well (ie not within 4 feet), timing of runs not within 5 seconds of actual time. The video overlay is pretty neat/nice. IMO, the app is super confusing for just AX use. It's got a ton of option, too many almost.
