Free Google Maps Timeline Export to Excel

Export your trips and mileage from Google Maps Timeline to Excel for your mileage tax deduction. This Chrome extension enables generating mileage and time sheet reports / exports.

Attention: Your trips exported from Google Maps Timeline with any tool are not sufficient as an IRS-Proof mileage log - points out our Platinum sponsor, MileageWise in their blog post. MileageWise, on the other hand, is able to convert these exported trips into an IRS-Proof mileage log.

None of your location data goes through a server. Everything is processed locally in your browser to ensure your privacy.

User reviews

I had an experience similar to that of John Wighton who had trouble changing the date range and getting the appropriate data. I fiddled with it and eventually got 6 years of data out via one Excel workbook per year but couldn’t get the 2018 data. I know the data is there because Takeout could access it and provide the data in JSON format and MileageWise could extract the data for one month of 2018 from the JSON data. Because I could get more data out, I won’t give it as low a rating as John. I thank the developers for making this product available. I suppose that as Google removes the option of storing Timeline data in the cloud, that MileageWise will be the option getting data unless competitors arise.

This was fantastic until it was no longer available. I am based in South Africa and the company Milage Wise you are suggesting does not support outside US and Canada

Funktioniert aktuell perfekt. Die in der vorherigen Rezension genannten Doppel-Einträge und falsche Berechnung der Dauer kann ich nicht feststellen, bei mir stimmt alles. Sollte keine Einträge erscheinen, dann in einem neuen Browser-Tab in Google Chrome die Google-Maps-Timeline-Seite als neue Seite (!) aufrufen. Dann folgt eine Abfrage, ob man ein Roboter ist - und wenn diese verneint wird, funktioniert wieder alles. Das Problem tritt auf, wenn sehr große Datenmengen (z. B. mehrmals lange Zeiträume) abgerufen werden ... die Google-Server blockieren dann vorübergehend weitere Abfragen.
