About this app

Timeline Exporter turns your Google Maps Timeline into open GPS formats — entirely on your phone.

Since late 2024, Google Maps Timeline is stored only on your device. There is no Takeout export and no website to download it from: your whole location history sits in a single Timeline.json file on your phone, with no easy way to use it elsewhere. Timeline Exporter is the tool that gets it out.

Pick your Timeline.json, preview the track on a map, filter by date, and export to GPX, KML, GeoJSON or CSV. Then open it in anything that reads GPS tracks: Strava, Garmin, Komoot, OsmAnd, Google Earth, QGIS, or your own scripts.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Everything happens on your device. Your location history is never uploaded — no servers, no account, no analytics, no ads. The only network use is loading map tiles for the preview. Most other converters are websites that ask you to upload your entire location history to a stranger's server; this one never does.

EXPORT FORMATS
- GPX — for Strava, Garmin, Komoot, OsmAnd and most GPS apps
- KML — for Google Earth and mapping tools
- GeoJSON — for QGIS, web maps and developers
- CSV — for spreadsheets and data analysis

FEATURES
- Works fully offline (apart from optional map tiles)
- Supports every Google export format: the current on-device export, the iOS variant, older Semantic Location History, and Records.json
- Date-range filter with quick presets (last 7 / 30 / 90 days, all data)
- Live map preview of your filtered track
- Open files straight from the share sheet
- 18 languages with an in-app language picker
- Free, ad-free and open source

HOW TO GET YOUR TIMELINE DATA
On your phone: Settings → Location → Location services → Timeline → Export Timeline data. That saves a Timeline.json file. Open it in Timeline Exporter and export. The in-app Help walks you through it.

Free and open source. No tracking, no ads, no catch.

What’s new

• Export your places, not just your track: where you were, how often and for how long — in all four formats.
• Filter by time of day: only your mornings, or only your nights, on the local clock.
• A quieter map, where the track builds up along the streets you walk most.
• CSV local times are now correct abroad, and exports can go straight to another app. Still no uploads, no accounts, no ads, no tracking.
