Yeah, this - one of the big reasons I still have a google account is for convenient location sharing with family and friends.

Hi, I have both Dawarich and Reitti installed, I tend to use Reitti a lot more because it shows my family on the map as soon as I log in, and I can review their timelines as well.
Any chance this could make it into Dawarich?

Family layer is togglable, and if your family members enabled sharing not just position but also location history, you’ll see their tracks. Not timelines though, I never thought about such a use case 🧐

Imagine if you can’t find your loved one for some reason, car crash, or out of gas and they can’t communicate (no reception, dead battery). Having quick access to their timeline facilitates a fast response.
These kind of apps have a ton of value for emergencies and the overall security of a family.
