Its pretty good, fancier than the GPS logger I used previously (which sadly is gone). However that had the big advantage that the tracks are just somewhere in the file system. I don't have to manually export them... and there isn't even a select all feature. You need to figure out that by selecting the first, than scrolling to the bottom and long pressing the last track, you'll select all. Works, but could be easier.
