NerdTrack
Read full descriptionHide full description
NerdTrack records your location in a CSV file on your phone. No other data is collected and no data ever leaves your device. Full source is available at https://nerdtrack.org There is no interactive UI. Just grant location permissions, and it will log in the background. To stop logging, remove location permissions or uninstall app. The app uses the SignificantLocation and CLVisit APIs. The accuracy is low but it has very low battery usage. To get your log, open the Files app, and look for locations.csv in the Nerd Track folder. A config file will be created in the app's documents folder the first time it runs. Edit that file to change logging frequency or minimal distance. Force-stop and restart app to reload config. By default, the app records location: - Every 15 minutes, if you have moved more than 300 meters The CSV logs timestamps in the unix epoch format. Use 'dateconv -i %s' to convert it to something more human-readable. Some helper scripts are available at https://nerdtrack.org
Store Fix

Store Fix keeps App Store links on the storefront region you choose, so app pages open in the country or region you expect. Why this matters: in some storefront regions, such as China, an App Store URL that is not fixed to the local region code can fail to open the app's product page. Store Fix rewrites apps.apple.com links to your selected storefront, so regional App Store pages keep working. With the Safari extension enabled, Store Fix works when you click App Store links on web pages and when you paste or type an App Store URL directly into Safari. Use it to: - Keep App Store pages on one preferred region - Jump between storefronts from the Safari toolbar - Search a full storefront list by country, localized name, or region code - Keep common regions such as China, Hong Kong, Japan, the United States, and Canada close at hand - Optionally force App Store links to stay in Safari instead of opening the App Store app Store Fix is designed for people who compare apps across regions, use multiple Apple storefronts, or simply want App Store links to behave predictably.
