Location tracking: there are other options that you could use, though they generally requires you to set up your own server in addition to installing the app.
You could also use an OsmAnd integration to avoid the need for a server, e.g., using their Telegram location tracker or regularly sending lat/long via SMS (though I couldn’t find an existing solution for this).
setting up my own server isnt an issue, I already have a makeshift server with a laptop.
