Dawarich 1.6.0 — Now With More Immich Flavor!
Long time no see huh? I mean the last update was about a month ago, but I couldn't wait till summer to share new exciting stuff that we built into Dawarich in last four weeks.
As always, Dawarich is your favorite free open-source self-hostable alternative to Google Timeline. Now with the official apps for both iOS and Android.

So! More screenshots than text this time.
First of all, I introduced TONS of fixes. Super happy about it, turned 180+ open issues on Github into 120. Seeing new contributors, too — thank you my dear people, your help is highly appreciated and always welcome! The only thing — if you want to contribute, take a moment to reach me on our Discord server to make sure I'm not working already on something you'd like to change. This happened before. Thank you!
So, the screenshots.
I've updated general looks and feels of Dawarich! To me, it looks better, feels better and overall more solid now. New directory on my SSD: "Design System", haha. Our mobile apps will be updated soon, too.
User management is a lot more convenient now.
Demo data is back! Now it's not mandatory, but an option on the onboarding modal window. Easily deletable, too.
Family members can now share not just the last known point with each other, but also their location history, i.e. routes. Full privacy awareness, each family member configures what they're sharing. You can also now send a location sharing request to your family members.
You can mass-confirm or mass-decline visits now. No screenshot, trust me, the buttons are there.
GPS noise filtering feature is a thing! By default, points with negative speed (known marker from some 3rd party mobile clients) and detected by internal heuristics are marked as anomaly points and not shown on the map and not considered when Route layer is being drawn (all on Map V2). We'll see if it works well and if so, such points will not be saved in the DB at all in the future. You can still enable Anomalies points layer to see them on the map.
In the Map V2 settings, you can now enable and disable certain layers on the map. God bless vector maps!
New tool to make digital nomads happy: Days per country. In Map V2 -> Settings -> Tools -> Days/Country you'll find a modal window showing a heatmap and data showing how many days you've spent in which country. Neat'o if you need this for your tax residency.
Two-Factor Authentication. No screenshots, just go to Settings -> Two-Factor Authentication and configure it.
And last but oh so long asked for! You can now use Dawarich to provide geodata to your Immich photos. How awesome is that? Make sure your Immich API key has asset.update permission, go to Map V2 Settings -> Tools -> Enrich Photos and finally do it! I was actually surprised how many pictures I have with no geodata. I mean, that's the point of photographing using a smartphone, is it not? Anyway, it's solved now.
More info on the feature is in the docs: https://dawarich.app/docs/features/enrich-photos
I know, it's a mess on the map, don't mind that.
I guess that's all for today! We're off for a long April break, so the next major release will likely be in the end of April or the beginning of May. Still plenty of ideas to implement, lots of bugs to squash!
