I’ve been using owntracks for a while now, and while it is pretty decent in terms of accuracy of data collection, it unfortunately lacks in the nice things that make Google Location History so good: automatic clustering, grouping, search, classification of trips and travel methods.

The initial setup is slightly annoying as well. Here’s a small write up from me: https://sathyasays.com/2024/07/13/self-hosting-owntracks-goo...

Thank you! I will definitely give it a try. I think there will be solutions for the subsequent analysis features in the future, but the data collection is the most important now.

Your write up really helps me a lot for investigating which software is best for me!
