    looking at uLogger now, that looks pretty interesting. Having used it, any reason why I shouldnt give this a go?

      Just remember if you want to share location data with someone else, the app on your phone is only one half. You also need some sort of server ehere you install software for it to report to.

      For uLogger that’s probably NextCloud with the PhoneTrack app installed, or OwnTracks.

      There are companies that offer paid NextCloud hosting, but if you aren’t hosting it yourself you probably can’t say it meets your privacy requirement.

        Yeah, that was going to be the second part of the question. Was it an all in one solution. There does seem to be a server side ulogger component but it may only be for viewing the data. Ill have to dig into the whole thing more to see what kind of FOSS self-hosted solution makes sense.
