I want to keep a timeline of the places I go like Google Maps can, and export it to mac for my diary*. The maps app doesn’t have to be great, it just needs to keep a timeline in the background, I would still use Apple Maps as my main navigation app.
*(ideally I can automatically export it somehow, perhaps with the Shortcuts and Scriptable app but just tell me any apps with a timeline and export feature)
Owntracks , overland or traccar apps to track device coords when it moves
Then Owntracks offer a very basic webui to show your track or pins within a specific time period on a map
Dawarich has some extra features and can handle google takeout and both Owntracks and overland json’s
https://github.com/Freika/dawarich
Traccar has many features too
All apps require a server
I am also starting a web app that fit my needs
It offers search , route grouping , and a date picker .
I’m struggling to implement new features like poi visited locations , google takeout import , support other apps except owntracka, beatify it a bit etc but I’m no real Dev .
Either way you might want to have a look
OwnTracks allows you to keep track of your own location. You can build your private location diary or share it with your family and friends. OwnTracks is open-source and uses open protocols for communication so you can be sure your data stays secure and private.
ios + android ☞ https://owntracks.org
Can this app work without a server, like just log my location on-device?
this one does ☞ trackbook
That seems to only be available for Android.
i thought about this post after reading the description but noticeably i forgot the “ios” part :/
