Hi,



I suggest to add last GPS lock/fix time to dashboard. It would largely increase the safety of hikers.

I use oruxmaps to do trekking navigation. In the mountain region, GPS loses lock very often. It is not practical to stop and wait for GPS re-lock every time. Sometimes, it never locks due to the terrain. If oruxmaps provides the last lock/fix time, we can determine if the displayed location trustworthy, or we can make rough estimation of the current location according to the time elapsed.  



Several other GPS apps have included this function. I suggest oruxmaps develop team to add it wchi makes oruxmaps closer to perfect.  



Thanks,



LuJing
