LifePath - Follow Your Path

Automatic private location journal. See where your day takes you, with detailed visits, movement, and places. 100% on-device. No cloud. No account. No tracking you.

LifePath is a private, automatic location journal that builds a rich timeline of your day—every visit, movement, and place—while keeping 100% of your data on your device.

No account. No cloud. No analytics. No ads. Just your life’s path—yours alone.

Why LifePath?

• Automatic: Runs quietly in the background using ultra-efficient deferred location updates.
• Detailed: Captures 150–300 high-quality points per day for accurate visit detection.
• Private: Every point, place, and movement segment stays on your device—never transmitted.
• Battery Friendly: Optimized collection strategy (≈5–10% daily impact in normal use).
• Structured Insights: Distinguishes visits (stops) and movement (trips) with inferred transport modes.
• Smart Place Detection: Learns frequent locations (home, work, gym, etc.) automatically.
• Geofencing Assist: Fast recognition when arriving at known places without draining your phone.
• Export Anytime: Own your data: JSON (full backup), CSV (analysis), GPX (mapping tools).

What You See

• Map View: Visual clusters of places you spent time.
• Timeline: Day / Week / Month summaries of visits and movement segments.
• Stats: Time spent moving vs stationary; walking / cycling / driving breakdowns.
• Places: Auto-categorized frequent locations with customizable names.

Technology Highlights

• Deferred background location collection (10m granularity, 5‑minute delivery batches)
• Time-aware clustering (DBSCAN tuned for short stops + multiple same-day visits)
• Speed-based movement segmentation (walking / cycling / driving inference)
• Local reverse geocoding cache for readable addresses (no external APIs)
• Event-driven architecture for real-time UI updates
• On-device SQLite database with write queue + retry logic

Your Privacy

LifePath never sends your location data to a server. There is no signup, no cloud sync, and no hidden data flow. You can delete or export everything at any time.

Battery Use

LifePath uses a background-only, batched strategy. It does not continuously poll GPS or show the blue location indicator. Typical use adds a small, predictable battery impact.

Ideal For

• Daily routine awareness
• Personal mobility journaling
• Tracking time spent at recurring places
• Travel retrospectives
• Memory augmentation (“Where was I Tuesday afternoon?”)

Data You Control

• Raw location points
• Visits (clusters)
• Movement segments (with inferred mode)
• Places + geofences
• Processing runs (audit trail)

All exportable. All erasable.

Roadmap (Non-Promissory)

Future updates may explore on-device trends (weekly summaries), improved transport detection, and optional tagging—still private.

Not Included (By Design)

• Social features
• Cloud backup
• Ads or tracking SDKs
• Real-time location sharing

Own your path. Stay private.
