I’m currently looking to develop an open source app that can help somebody. I’m currently out of ideas, so I’d like to heard if from you guys.
Sorry if it seems to lazy to ask for ideas like that, I just thought that I could do it since the result will be a free app.
Right now im looking for an alternative to the Google Maps Timeline. I know there is OwnTracks but I dont think that everything has to be hosted on a server somewhere (especially when all its saving is a timestamp and a coordinate, its not like that takes up alot of space)
Basically just your own location tracker and then the option to see your own history displayed in a map e.g. where you have been on the 02.july.2019 at 11:50.
Google Maps Timeline is also hosted on a server somewhere.
OsmAnd has a track recording feature.
Yeah obviously Google hosts this as a Services because it want your location data. But if I’m the only one who sees that data, I think it’d fine if it stays on my phone.
And I am especially not looking for a tracker like you showed (usually because I dont care “exactly exactly” how I went to places but rather at which time I have been at which place)
I would also be interested in this!
Are you thinking of a mobile app or something else, like fully separate hardware you’d carry around? Sounds interesting
No I am just thinking of an App. The Apps which exist (as far as I have found them, if there are better apps I would be glad for recommendations) are either:
