Hey everyone, I’m looking for a driving journal app, to track when, to/from where and which distance I drive.

Ideally I’d like for it to be FOSS, but if there are decent Closed Source apps I’m ok with it too (I’d just block Network Access in Graphene OS then).

This post (not mine) has pretty much my ideal criteria, but sadly didn’t get any answers: https://softwarerecs.stackexchange.com/questions/88349/drivers-logbook-app-for-android-foss

Unlike the above post, I don’t want this for tax purposes etc., but rather just to understand where all my distance driven comes from.

Edit: I’ve done some more research and haven’t found anything, for now I’ll just use an OnlyOffice spreadsheet. If I find the time, I might try developing an app for this at some point.

Edit 2: After developing my app for a week and then showing it to a friend, he instantly found exactly what I was working on…

    What about Traccar? I see a section in there for “drives”, although I just leave mine on all the time

      Imo it looks to be very bloated for what I want. I don’t need (or necessarily want) a GPS track for the whole journey, but rather just start and endpoint. I intend to tell the distance from my cars odometer.

      Also I already started making my own app by now anyway and I’m far too committed to consider other options lol
