CLUSTER LOCATION-TRACKING-GPS · 16 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2013-03-05

Self-hosted GPS tracking apps

This cluster comprises mobile location tracking apps, many emphasizing self-hosted servers, privacy, geofencing, and outdoor activity logging. The dated entries before the index start appear sparsely from 2013 to 2019, then resume in 2025 and early 2026 with a slightly higher frequency. Traction is led by Location-Tracking-GeoPulse- with 3 stars, while all other known members show no activity stars.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
