Hi, I am planning to build my own location history service similar to the google maps timeline.

For this, I need a simple app that sends my current location (and current speed/altitude if possible) to a given HTTPS endpoint every x seconds.

Is there an app that does that? I could also build my own app, but I’d prefer to spend my time on the server-side.

I found a similar feature in OsmAnd (see the image below), but I’d like to not send my coordinates via URL parameters for security reasons.

    I’ve found gpslogger to phonetrack works well. The phonetrack app isn’t bad but a bit heavy IMO.
