Features
Location Tracking
Track your live location using one of the supported apps.
Location History Visualization
View your historical data on a map with customizable layers:
Heatmap
Points
Lines between points
Fog of War
Family Sharing
Share your location with family members.
View locations of family members on the map (with their consent).
Each family member can enable or disable location sharing individually.
Areas
Draw areas on the map so Dawarich could suggest your visits there.
Visits (Beta)
Dawarich can suggest places you've visited and allow you to confirm or reject them.
Statistics
Analyze your travel history: number of countries/cities visited, distance traveled, and time spent, broken down by year and month.
Insights
Get insights about your location history, like "Your most visited place is home, with 120 visits", or "You spent 30 days in Paris in 2024".
Days in country
See how many days you've spent in each country. Useful for tax residency purposes or just to see where you spend most of your time.
Trips
Create a trip to visualize your travels between two points in time. You'll be able to see the route, distance, and time spent, and also add notes to your trip. If you have Immich or Photoprism integration, you'll also be able to see photos from your trips!
Integrations
Provide credentials for Immich or Photoprism (or both!) and Dawarich will automatically import geodata from your photos.
You'll also be able to visualize your photos on the map!
What is this?Dawarich is a self-hostable web app that replaces Google Timeline: it tracks your location history, shows it on an interactive map, and analyzes your travels.
Is this an app on my phone, or something I run myself?It's a web app you host on your own server (Docker is the standard way) and open in a browser; your phone just sends location points to it via a tracking app.
How do I get it running?Clone the repository and run the Docker command from the README, then open the app in your browser and log in with the defaults ([email protected] / safepassword) — change them in account settings.
Besides the server, do I need anything on my phone?Yes, a tracking app: Dawarich's own iOS and Android apps, or Overland, OwnTracks, GPSLogger, PhoneTrack or Home Assistant, all configured to send points to your instance.
Can I just let it auto-update, or are there gotchas?Don't: it's under active development with frequent breaking changes. Read release notes before updating, back up first, and never delete your original data after importing.
Who can see my location history?Everything stays on your own server. Family sharing is opt-in — each member enables or disables it individually — and you can export all your data to GeoJSON or GPX anytime.
Can it show my photos on the map?Yes — enter your Immich or Photoprism credentials (both work) and Dawarich automatically imports geodata from your photos, puts them on the map, and shows them inside trips.
What are Areas and Visits?Areas are regions you draw on the map so Dawarich can suggest your visits there; Visits (beta) are places it proposes you've been, which you confirm or reject.
What if I don't want to self-host anything?There's Dawarich Cloud — the managed version where everything is hosted for you, while this GitHub project remains the self-hostable edition.
