Hello everybody,

I go in bike alone and I would know if there is any app - possibly open source - that allows to my wife to track my position wherever I am when I’m riding.

Thanks in advance

    Telegram has a live location feature.

    Whatsapp also has a live location feature.

    Gmaps also has one, I think

    I don’t know any FOSS alternatives

          Yes I know they are not privacy friendly. But these are convenient to use. There is also nothing to set up. Setting up a server for running a location tracking app seems like a lot of work. His wife just wants to know his location.

            To be fair, OP wasn’t specifically asking for an open-source solution. Providing commercial answers isn’t wrong and is helpful.
