Hey everyone, does anyone know of any good Life360 alternatives that still show speed and location history, doesn’t need to be self hosted but that would be ideal. Preferably would like it to integrate with Home Assistant as well. I’ve used Traccar + HA before but it was a bit finicky and the live location wasn’t really 100% live. Not to mention the route history sometimes not working. If it’s user friendly that would be a plus.

Thanks!

I’ve also tried Home Assistant but it just wasn’t close enough to Life360 for my liking.

When you looked at HA did you remember to turn up the accuracy in the app? You could also add a few computed template sensors to track additional information from the changing values.

The HA app has always been fine for me, and that's despite requiring more accuracy than the default. The only downside is that it the updates are a little slow.

#

GPSLogger can be faster (if you set it that way) but doesn't have all the other magic the HA app has

I'm very happy with the HA app
be sure to disable battery optimization and it works wonderfully

at least for me

I suspect you will need to create some template sensors to get the history recorded for the long lat values. Not tried it myself.
