Link to Google maps timeline

GRITaro

Idea: Have a link (or button) to Google maps timeline (location history) to a current day, from specific diary record.

The link is pretty simple - https://maps.google.com/maps/timeline?pb=!1m2!1m1!1sYYYY-MM-DD
ex: https://maps.google.com/maps/timeline?pb=!1m2!1m1!1s2018-08-28
If user have google maps installed - then app will be launched with timeline opened at selected date. Otherwise this will be browser window.

Yes, this does not makes sense for users who not using location tracking, but to me I found it pretty useful.

Ideally, I'd like to have integration with google timeline page into Diarium, but have no idea how it could be possible.

Diarium version: 2.8.7
Operating system: Android

I would love this and/or https://gyrosco.pe integration

Yes I would love the timeline function too.

The more I think about it the more I like this idea...
Of course, ideally it would be cool to also have a preview of the timeline in the app itself, but this might be not possible. a "tag" that acts like a link to the Maps app or browser window might be good enough though

timo Sweet!

Let me go into more detail why this is so awesome. I have been using https://gyrosco.pe (and other Tools before) mostly for the location history feature for years. It enables me to go back a year or three, look at where I have been on a day (and a few days before and after) and I can remember pretty exactly what I did during that day. It adds a lot of context, just like pictures to a journal, even without having to write anything down.
