Would this keep track of mileage traveled on horseback?

If you leave your trailer you can mark the spot and go riding . As you ride you can check your distance from your starting point .That will give you the distance.

Well, it depends how one interprets that question. If you want it to track how far you've traveled in a database (or electronic log file) so you can go back and review your mileage later then NO. However, if you want to tell how many miles you are RIGHT NOW from a stable or trail head (and which direction to travel as the crow flies to get back to your point of origin), then YES. This device only tracks REAL TIME information, and does not store or log anything other than your current location and direction from 1 - 3 way points you've actually traveled to and marked on the device.

It tracks the current distance, but does not do a summative total. So, if you walk a mile a day for a week, it will only record the mile you walked that day.

Yes it should do a great job of tracking your walks. I have never used it outside of the US so you will need to check if it works in Australia.

No, it doesn't store any trip information. Just has a limit alarm you can set when a speed is reached, pretty simple.

No. The unit will compute your stride length and it is pretty accurate. If you think that there is a problem with the stride length there is a feature where you can manually set it.

No, the odometer readings are not captured. The travel miles can be captured, but it is not the function of the device. It is the software (app) which probably uses smartphone's GPS to record travel miles.

Patricia this is designed to get you places not keep track of miles so I don't think it does what you need. You Mark a starting point and when you want to get back it points you in the right direction. It can also get you back to a point by marking the point when you arrive, saving it and when you want to go back to that point you dial it up and it points you to it.

Yes, Very easy to set up, like that it can track both overall mileage as well as the trip mileage, very satisfied with it.

No, it would not give you an accurate read. It is meant for running/walking.

It should. Everything is predicated on whether you setup the pedometer correctly. In the beginning when you set it up it asks about how long your stride is (among other questions) so it computes things properly. If you enter this information honestly and correctly, it should work like a charm. Good luck and hopefully this helps.

I do not believe it will. The tracking (distance) is determined via GPS. Plus, the GPS does not work indoors.

Not as accurate as a gps type pedometer would be, because I imagine hiking involves strides that are not of a consistent length (like when you're climbing over logs.) So it might not be super accurate for distance. I have worn it hiking, and it does provide some useful info. If you are mostly on easy trails, not too much climbing and scrambling, I think it would be fine. Oh and I wear mine daily and it shows no signs of breaking. I lost my first one, but I had it for over a year. Second one for many months now. Still love it.

Yes it will, just start with your last stop, enter info, then enter next to last stop and add as via next stop and keep doing the same for all stops. You can view total trip or just leg of trip by tapping on time or mileage left to go in top right corner of screen

I'm afraid it doesn't. It is an exercises device, not a going out info. It records your traject, speed, heights and other data like that. Good luck

It's a nice feature but it is inaccurate in the mileage dept. I found that there are better options out there. When I tried to correct the hos to actual time it wouldn't let me and said that nothing could be changed in it.

Yes, but I leave it plugged in because the report generated let's you choose what trips were business by checking them on the webpage. I can track overall mileage better this way for oil changes, miles on tires and gas usage. Also to figure out ratio of business vs personal use. So far this product has been great and trouble free.

The short answer is yes. I use this to measure elevation gain on short hikes. It is not great for hiking as the altitude always starts on "0" (not the actual starting altitude) and when you turn it off it looses all data. It does stay charged long enough for shorter hikes but will be of no value for a backpacking trip. It will return to zero if you go up, and then back down.
