  • Hi Daniel,

    I saw that you released the 2.5.0 version and I installed it right away!

    Now that the french translation is complete (though I think it still needs a bit of polish, to be more concise, especially when the context is clear), I saw some places that still show untranslated strings.

    Here they are (I listed them by access point):

    • /:
      • Tooltip on the “Today” button is “Go to Today”
      • Tooltip on the “Play icon” is “Auto Update”
      • Tooltip on the fullscreen icon is “Toggle Fullscreen”
      • Tooltip on the show/close panels
    • /memories
      • Create Memory
      • View Memory
    • /memories/<x>
      • Share
      • Delete
      • All the text on the Edit page
    • /statistics
      • Global
      • Overall Statistics
      • Transport modes
      • Graphs
      • Month names when you select a specific year
    • /settings/export-data
      • On the raw data table, it shows “Found <x> location points”
    • /settings/user-management
      • Alert box shows “Are you sure you want to remove the current custom CSS file?”
    • /settings/places
      • In the search box, it’s “Search places…”
    • /settings/visit-sensitivity
      • Sensitivity scale goes from “Very Low” to “Very High”
      • On the preview, the date selection is still written as “Preview Date”, when the button on the right is clicked, it shows “Loading preview…”
    • /settings/geocode-services
      • Placeholder for geocoding service has “e.g., My Custom Geocoder”
      • The warning before the geocoding.clear.warning message is written as “Warning”
    • /settings/integrations
      • Instructions for each application are still in english

    I also started to use the sharing options with other members of my family, and, I think I saw someone already proposing this, I really like the idea of setting our own path color.

    Moreover, the colors that can be selected are all solid, and for some trips, it can be a bit overwhelming, I think it could be nice to be able to select a level of transparency for each one. In the meantime, I used the custom CSS feature to do that on a broad level, and I also added a more lighter theme, because I was feeling a bit too oppressed by the darker feel of the left of Reitti’s screen.

    Here is my full CSS file, with the light theme and the path opacity, for anyone that may be interested:

    /* Light theme */
    div.timeline {
      background: linear-gradient(90deg, rgba(17, 17, 17, 0.19) 0%, rgba(59, 59, 59, 0.09) 76%, rgba(255, 255, 255, 0) 100%);
    }
    .timeline-entry {
      color: #fff;
      text-shadow: #000 1px 0 10px;
    }
    
    /* Path opacity */
    .leaflet-interactive {
      opacity: 0.6;
    }
    




  • For the QR Code, I am not decided right now since you still would have to need to login before getting the the data from the backend. So it would only cut out the open the url and navigate to settings right now.

    Ok, yes, I see, but that’s true only for the GPSLogger setup. Both OwnTracks and Overland will extract all the information they need from the link, without another access to the server. That’s why I see it as a simpler process: setting everything up on a computer, then once you need to configure your phone, provided you have OwnTracks or Overland already installed, just open the camera app, point, shoot and follow the QR code and you’re all set.


  • That’s really cool, the Memories sorting options are super useful!

    I noticed some bugs on the new features, as well as some older bugs, though:

    1. when I’m on the transportation modes setting page, there’s a new settings entry that appeared on the menu on the left, “Manage data”, but when I open it, it shows a 500 server error.
    2. still on the transportation modes setting page, the different modes are correctly translated in the “Add Transportation Mode” panel drop-down, but they seem to use the English terminology in the table, as well as on the statistics pages.
    3. regarding the token selection on the application integration page, the URL doesn’t seem to change on the descriptions, even if it’s correctly set with the “Autoconfigure” buttons.
    4. and finally, it’s more of a feature request than a bug, the “Autoconfigure” buttons are a nice way for user onboarding on the same device. A QR code allows new users to use Reitti on a computer, and just point with their phone when they want it configured.
    5. as a side note, this integration app page may feel a bit cluttered now that there’s more applications. I don’t know if the addition of a drop-down/option list for the application you want to integrate, and that would show only the application custom settings would be easier to apprehend for new users.


  • I used it all day and the Overland integration is excellent. I was tracked pretty much all the time. I need to see how it impacts the battery, but that’s more on the Overland side.

    I see that there’s a way of using URLs to setup Overland, that could be a nice addition to have a QR code right next to each method, if they support custom URLs.

    I also created a new API token for this new application, and I see that the integration page seems to take the last generated token for all the URLs, maybe it could be nice, in case of multiple tokens, to allow the selection of a specific token, application per application, or even try to match an application with a token with the same name.



  • Ok, I’ve made the switch!

    I have a couple of questions:

    1. Is it possible to reorder Memories once they have been created? I have made some in a certain order but they don’t seem to be sorted other than by the time they were created. If that’s possible, I’d really like to have a default inverted start time order, as well as a manual sort…
    2. Is it possible to use Overland to ingest GPS locations? It’s said to be compatible with OwnTracks, Dawarich seems to be able to use it and I’d like to use it as well with Reitti but that does not seem to be the case. I find the OwnTracks application on iPhone a bit of a pain to use…







  • On a fini la saison 2 de Severance. C’est toujours aussi bien, même si je suis déçu que certains personnages n’ait pas été plus étoffés durant cette saison, mais c’est des trucs prometteurs pour les saisons prochaines.

    Sinon, on vient de démarrer Adolescence, et c’est vraiment très maîtrisé et impressionnant, vivement ce soir pour voir la fin (4 épisodes en tout).
