2024-12-06 | Doug F | en | 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. | |
2024-11-10 | christina-lee | en | Its bullshit.. Definitly doesnt work now in Windows 11 or on android.. Would really have made claiming kms travelled for work. I rack up 2000 kms per month.. I get red flagged every time I try to claim for the actual amount carrying bulky equipment.. Annoying. Windows 11 is a bit shit so far Id also have to add.. ! | |
2024-10-16 | Fourie Home | en | 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 | |
2024-10-08 | Flo Li | de | 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. | |
2024-09-23 | Sven Langeberg | en | 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. | |
2024-09-17 | Jon Thurmond | en | Didn't work for me. | |
2024-09-06 | Jordan Bailey (JB) | en | I know google maps did some changes with being able to access your timeline on desktop. I believe that change has bricked this extension. Nothing shows up in my list at all, no matter the date range. Used to work wonderfully but hasn't the past few months :( Was 5 stars before it stopped working. If it starts working again, I'll gladly update the review | |
2024-07-23 | Fabian Rom | de | Einträge doppelt, Dauer wird nicht richtig berechnet | |
2024-07-19 | Adrian Martinez | en | Amazing and free, thanks! Worked for me. | |
2024-05-17 | Jan Veitch | en | As Chris noted on April 7, 2024. This was a GREAT tool, until Google changed timeline data storage. This tool now cannot access the data using a browser. FYI, you can still download the data using Google Takeout, but this extension cannot use that data. Hopefully the developer can allow it to use the downloaded timeline JSON. |
