About Where Was I?

Where Was I? records your location periodically, without draining your battery. It works perfectly together with latitude: With latitude enabled 'where was I?' will help it gathering much more data. However, you may choose to disable latitude if you'd rather keep your data local on the device. We think that 'where was I?' gives you more interesting ways to look at your data.

'where was I?' is an automatic diary, based on your locations. Doesn't your life get so busy that you simply lose track of all the places you've been? Do you promise yourself to keep tabs in your journal but always let it slide after a few weeks? Read on - we have the answer!

'Where Was I?' is a new kind of location tracker that is designed to always run in the background with minimal impact on the battery.

Where Was I? collects interesting stats about all the places you've been! You can point to a place on the map and the date and time where you were last there just pops up. How long where you there? Where did you go next? What on earth did you do two Saturday's ago? In short ... where does the time go and what are you doing with it?

Start using 'Where Was I?' today and get a grip on your life!

Technical stuff:

This is not a path tracker like 'MyTracks'! The GPS is only turned on at selected intervals.

'Where was I?' keeps your data stored locally! We don't transmit your data anywhere.

Define important locations by long pressing "locations" in the browser. The more information you add, the more interesting the statistics will become.

After installation, please give the app some time to collect locations. It may take a day or two until 'where was I?' unveils it's full power.

Features:
- tracks your whereabouts and keeps your data private
- tracks the cell towers you've used
- export your data to google earth
- always on, starts on boot

Please read below for an explanation of the permissions used:

INTERNET: This is necessary for reverse geocoding. (i.e. finding out the address of a location.)

CHANGE_WIFI_STATE: location tracking is much faster and far more reliable with wifi switched on. 'where was I?' needs to be able to switch on WiFi while updating the location.

ACCESS_WIFI_STATE: is used to set the wifi state back.

RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED: used to start service if device has been restarted.

WAKE_LOCK: We need to hold a wake lock to reliably track in the background.

It is a very good!App which tracks where you have been very well. It is very accurate and is a very useful App for people who like to know where they have been.

It is telling about places I haven't visited. I visited only ernakulam and thiruvaniyoor but they gave me kota in rajasthan where I haven't even seen in my life

V70%

This app automatically turns on my Wifi which unfortunately turns off my cell service which automatically causes me to not be online right in the middle of me being trying to use my cell service which is rather disconcerting when I am in the middle of talking to someone. This is not good and frustrates me so much that I have turned the service off. I wouldnt mind so much except that my device becomes useless when this happens if I can't get attached to those Wifi services such as my home network which has NO internet connection because it is not connected to the internet but is just an internal system. I understand the idea of triangulation with Wifi involved but in my case because when Wifi turns on my cell service shuts off automatically I have no internet connection or GPS service because that is what this LG Pad does to save on cell service charges. This app is frustrating because of that and the fact that it turns on the useless Wifi service and does NOT automatically switch back to cell service which inevitably makes this app useless in the end. If it stays on Wifi when I'm in the middle of the highway and it switches to Wifi where there is no Wifi but doesn't switch back to

I would expect an option to export the history to a text or csv file. Maybe an option to save the history to the SD card rather than internally. Other than that it's a very good app for location tracking.

Very useful for working out how long i spent at each job.I would like to be able to export to excel or access to get better accuracy and grouping of the reports.

I really like this app, it has worked for over 550 days in a row for me. U I like that this app doesn't share with other apps. I also believe that Google has a service that does the same thing... Google location history. So there's that... Overall, 10/10 one thing I should mention is that when you get over 10,000 data points...it starts to lag hardcore. So yeah... The longer it is running... The slower it gets.

Very good app that helps me keep track of where I have been working. I could not find a forum to make suggestions but if the developer sees this... Could you have some kind of schedule so I can set it to only collect data during working hours? No need to collect data at weekends and overnight. Thanks

I use this app frequently. It helps me remind the customersites i have been when i'm making up my hour registration for billing.

I would have given 5 star if it shows accurate place. My GPS is always on but it sometime shows that at 9.45am i was in india and at 10 am i was in Italy hungry Turkey etc.

This app is dispaying bunch of "cell" entries and reporting location is unknow n and it would take some time, and it's been like that for months. It knows the country I am in, US, yes, but I dont need an app for that. Only the graphic shows some info but bunch of dots and lines, totally useless. I have to uninstall.

This app is a big help to me, since I am a consultant and travel frequently. I also frequently can't remember what I did, so this will at least tell me where I was, and that jogs my memory.

Great app.

Very useful for contractors assessing how much time was spent where. I found that I spend an amazing amount of time simply driving. I only wish that in addition to the squares, you could view where you've gone daily/weekly/monthly as a line that changes color with your time(history) or as an animated line that quickly retraces your path for a day/week/month (sort of the same principle as a permanent camera on, say, a bridge construction jobsite, that takes a picture every 5 minutes, and you can replay fast

I like very much this way of tracking your movements. And look forward to future upgrades. I would like the track to be more accurate perhaps in future upgrades. Norman.

I don't need the actual addresses, but it's great to know more or less where I've been!

N70%
by N####:

I used this app for about a week. I did not use Latitude together with the app. It connects to the GPS many times per day. I checked the history, and there is NO DATA. What a waste of time. Don't bother downloading this app.

I was recommended this app on Reddit and have been addicted to it ever since. The dev team is very active and constantly looking for ways to improve. I've run this since the day I got my Galaxy Nexus and it barely shows up on battery usage. Looking forward to seeing more great things with "Where was I" edit: Even faster in 1.39!

Excellent once you get used to it. Would like to find a way of deleting a whole day at once rather than point by point though.
