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 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
While you’re at it, I use Privacy Insights which lets you track what every app on your phone is doing and where it’s talking to.
And I’d like to know why Apple Books keeps accessing my contacts.
This one? https://apps.apple.com/us/app/app-privacy-insights/id1575583991
No need to pay money friend. Go Settings > Privacy & Security > App Privacy Report
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 :/
