Colota is an open-source GPS tracking app that sends your location to your own server over HTTP(S). It works offline, supports geofencing, and doesn't share any data except with your configured backends.

Features

The FOSS variant uses Android's native LocationManager and has no Google Play Services dependency.

WhatsNew:

- Multi-select trips via long-press in Location History.
- Tasker support: start/stop tracking via broadcast intent.
- Battery charging status now correct in the Data tab.
- Backup password field switched to hold-to-reveal.
- Fixed motion-detection freezes on slower devices.
- Trip detail: map track matches the title color; prev/next arrows switch trips.
- Activity Log renamed to Logging, with a File tab for bug-report logs.
- Fixed location import failing on files larger than a few KB.

While you can download the APKs here directly, you should preferably use an F-Droid client so the app stays up-to-date on your device. Some clients have this repo enabled by default, e.g. Neo Store, Droid-ify, or, of course, the IzzyOnDroid client by Sunil. With others (like the official client) you'll have to add this repo manually (see the hint on top of the package list for how to do that).
