<p>I&#x27;ve been using Google Timeline (Location History) for years to remind me of what I have been doing on a specific day. However, Google will no longer store data in its cloud (https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.techradar.com&#x2F;phones&#x2F;google-maps-will-soon-delete-your-location-history-unless-you-tell-it-not-to ). This brings me troubles because I really don&#x27;t like to operate the cell phone when I have a much more powerful PC at hand.<p>I would like to ask for advises for open source self hosted alternatives that collect location data quietly in background. Here are what I&#x27;ve found:<p><pre><code>    https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;traccar&#x2F;traccar (server, client)
    https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;mendhak&#x2F;gpslogger (client)
    https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;home-assistant (server, has location tracking integration)
    https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;owntracks (server, client)
    https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;Freika&#x2F;dawarich (server)
    https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;aaronpk&#x2F;Overland-iOS (iOS client)
    https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;OpenHumans&#x2F;overland_android (Android client, inactive)
    https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;aaronpk&#x2F;Compass (server)
    https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;julien-nc&#x2F;phonetrack (web client, use Nextcloud as server)
</code></pre>
Any recommendations or tips?<p>Thanks!
