I use Dawarich on my server and Colota as the app on my phones. It is quite good but has some minor shortcomings with multiple devices and being able to see previous routes ONLY FOR THE ACCOUNT YOU’RE LOGGED INTO (so not family member phones) but is fine for live location for all devices. Also you use a browser to track location instead of an app which is a minor annoyance.
I had been using Traccar and liked that but after moving to GrapheneOS, the Traccar client would not stay running in background.
I tried FMD-FOSS and couldn’t get it to fully work. This serves a different purpose than those listed above and I ended up not really needing it.
I tried all of the other popular options and even linking one to Nextcloud and didn’t care for them or couldn’t get them to work. Reitti and GPS Logger worked but I prefer Dawarich and Colota.







It’s not that crazy. Do you wipe your phone every time you travel? It’s the most secure but least convenient option.
