idea: also grab gps data whenever another app obtains a fix

Hi, this app graps the GPS fix whenever another app asks for location services:

Maybe TinyTravelTracker can do that, too? To cut down on its own GPS requests?

Satstat can also grab other apps' GPS fix. https://f-droid.org/repository/browse/?fdfilter=satstat&fdid=com.vonglasow.michael.satstat

I was in a three-hour flight with TTT switched on. Several times I checked my position on other applications and SatStat showed I had a GPS fix. However TTT only registered my position once, near destination. The ability to piggyback on GPS fixes would be great.
