I’ve been trying to find an alternative to Life360 that doesn’t use Google/Apple map data.

If I could find a similar app that uses OpenStreetMap data, that would be fantastic.

I’ve been recommended a plugin for OsmAnd which allows location sharing through telegram. This wouldn’t be ideal as none of my family uses Telegram.

Edit: my original post on !openstreetmap@lemmy.ml

    The F-Droid version (which is available on IzzyOnDroid’s repo) utilizes OSM. You’ll need a server to sync the data to though and it likely does not have all of the features that Life360 has.

      That looks interesting. I was kind of expecting that it might be challenging to find exactly what I am looking for.
