Android App
The Android app matches the Web Application and iOS manuals in concepts (Groups, Treks, maps, safety). Differences are Material Design layout, Android permissions, and small wording changes in menus—not different rules for groups or treks.
| Concept (same on all platforms) | Android where to find it |
|---|---|
| Community hub | Groups tab |
| Live outing | Treks tab → trek → Check In |
| Live GPS on map | When checked in on an active trek |
| Billing & subscription | More → account.ptreks.com (Account manual) |
