We found the interface not user friendly and abandoned it at the second square. The next location recording would start before the first location had finished.

When taking tours on the WalknTours app you need to allow location permission for our tour to tell the story on location. You did not allow for location permission. That's why you had the issue. To offer a GPS location aware experience, we need to know your location :). I hope next time you take a tour, you'll allow it, then it will work :) Thanks!
