Extension summary

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.

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.

This would be great if the formatting was adjustable, my CSV export has distances shown as [14.758 KM] which makes it unusable for calculations. if it would say [14,758] without added text this would be a huge game changer. So: great tool, but just not for me, unfortunately.
