1. It won't be working on stock devices, unfortenately. It's library to integrate to your android application
2. Extra calculations don't consume as much battery as GPS and with this technique we use GPS less often. In other hand we use accelerometer and magnetometer. I tested this by eye :) and didn't find big difference between GPS only solution and presented solution. But as written in article - it doesn't accumulate coordinates.
3. Android already has similar filters. They use Kalman filter and many interesting things. See here :

- londons_explore 9y agoFor 1., on android you can have third party location providers I believe, and then any app could use it.
- Gen1us2k 8y agoYes, but you need to specify coefficients somehow for that and add calibration step.
