Abstract: This article introduces a novel Android application developed in the Kotlin programming language, which enables users to tracking the location of their devices through the implementation of a custom algorithm. The focal point of this innovation lies in leveraging the Timing Advance parameter derived from the Long-Term Evolution (LTE) network to ascertain the most optimal track for location tracking. The technical overview describes the technologies used, while the tracking application chapter offers a detailed look at the architecture and implementation details. Special emphasis is placed on the use of Timing Advance and its role in the position tracking algorithm. The testing results confirm the efficiency and accuracy of the proposed solution. The article further deals with possible problems and proposed future extensions of the application. This work provides a comprehensive view of an innovative approach to location tracking in mobile devices.
