Hey, it's been a minute.

Dawarich is still your favorite FOSS, self-hostable alternative to Google Timeline. Since the last update, a lot has shipped: better maps, public sharing, flight history, a redesigned trip experience, mobile app updates, safer imports, and a small detour into changelogs, roadmaps, and posters.

Hello there, good people, Evgenii from Dawarich here! In this post, I'm going to share some overview of the past year, how it went for the project, and what we have planned for you this year.

As usual, Dawarich is your favorite alternative to Google Timeline, free, open-source, and self-hostable. And available as a subscription-based product for those who don't want to self-host, but that's a whole different story.

Hello, my dearest people!

This is, once again, an update on Dawarich, your favorite FOSS alternative to Google Timeline:

Make yourself a nice hot cup of tea and let's begin with the recent changes. Since the last update I posted was in the end of August, in this post I'll cover all the changes since then.

Happy Birthday, Dawarich: One Year of Building a Google Timeline Alternative

So, mid-March this year Dawarich, your favorite alternative to Google Timeline, turned 1 year old. Yeah I know, I'm late to my own party. But still, I have to write this post. The progress I made during this year is pretty impressive, at least to myself: from nothing, Dawarich is now a known and loved piece of software, that is being run on dozens and dozens of home labs, and so many people are tracking their geodata, I can't even imagine. I literally can't, since, you know, there is no way to know how many of you are using it. But almost 5k stars on Github and nearly 150 supporters across Patreon, Ko-fi and GitHub says something, and I want to say thank you to you, my good people, and those who support or ever supported us on the mentioned platforms.

Thank you.

It's time for a monthly update on what happened to Dawarich, your favourite self-hosted alternative to Google Timeline, in December — but since it's December, I'd like to share an overview of what happened during this year in general, too.

All in all — what a year! With the very first experiments about a year ago, I started working on Dawarich in March this year and it soon became my main pet-project.
