It’s about time to start tending the pastures again and I’m looking for something that can accurately depict speed logged on the device (android smart phone) along with possibly a map overlay of where I’ve already been. I think something like a workout/cycling tracker would work if someone can recommend a good one that logs the path you’ve taken?

I’ve looked at Blue Square Speedometer and it seems like a solid starting point, but the path tracking would he super beneficial if anyone knows anything.

Thanks in advance all!

    I’ve been using traccar (https://github.com/traccar/traccar).
    It’s mostly for fleet management, but I’ve been using it as a replacement for Google maps timeline.
    Its android apps ara basic but haven’t had any problems with them.

    Or if you find a service which doesn’t provide a client you can use this app https://github.com/mendhak/gpslogger
    It allows you to send the gps data to different services with their specific formats at the same time. I was using it to send the data to traccar while also saving it in a local file.

      Nice, I’ll have to check this out. I started digging a bit F-Droid and found Open Track, but I’m not super impressed with it so far.

      I’ll hop on and give yours a shot too. Or at least peruse the docs, thanks for the info neighbor!
