Any alternatives to Life360/FindMy?
The only private alternatives are going to be self hosted and will require some technical skill. See owntracks for details. Source: almost 1 year ago
Trying to make a pair of compasses that always point to each other
On your side, you need some way to be tracked. Easy solution is an app on your phone, I like OwnTracks as a privacy-respecting option. Source: about 1 year ago
Privacy-focused Vehicle Tracking Tool?
Sounds like owntracks with a android headunit https://owntracks.org/. Source: over 1 year ago
Updating location on Google maps
OwnTracks is app people can install on their phones that you can setup to send live gps coordinates back to your web server. Source: over 1 year ago
Best solution for remotely hosting public-facing low-traffic services?
One container where this would have been an issue for me is OwnTracks recorder. Probably could have got it working on ARM if I wanted to compile the program then create a container around it, but didn't want to spend the time and instead just used the free tier x86_64 VM. Source: over 1 year ago

As ironic as this may sound: Looking for a privacy-respecting way to track and be tracked?
The Tice App has apps for both Android and iPhone. The Android app is also available on F-Droid. The app recently went open source client and boasts end-to-end encrypted location sharing within your group (which is opt-in). Source: over 2 years ago
Life360 alternative
TICE App (E2E and Free) or Traccar (Free if self hosted). Both are open source. Source: over 2 years ago
Privacy Respecting Location Tracker?
If you can't use Traccar (is not too user friendly) you can try TICE App that became open source (alla clients) few days ago: https://ticeapp.com/en/. Source: over 2 years ago
