Sesamo vs MeTrail

With Sesamo, mobility panels are supported to automatically compile an accurate and complete trip diary as much as possible. Are you a participant or panel member in a mobility survey? Then download the Sesamo app, log in with the credentials you have received from the panel administrator, and simply put the app in your pocket to start measuring. You will see the trips that you make start to appear in the day overview. The app tries to determine exactly when you have traveled, from where to where, via which route, and with which mode of transport. In the beginning you may have to correct trips a bit more often, but due to the learning properties of Sesamo this will become less over time. In addition, Sesamo keeps track of which places you visit often, and which routes you use often. By making changes to these frequently visited places and frequently used routes, future journeys are also better recognized, further reducing the need for manual corrections. Finally, Sesamo can ask you additional questions, for example ask about your travel experience after your public transport journey, or in the event of a delay about its cause, or during roadworks about the use of alternative routes. The panel administrator is responsible for obtaining your permission to participate in panel research. If you have not received an invitation for a panel, then unfortunately you cannot use Sesamo. Do you want to conduct mobility research with the help of a panel of users equipped with the Sesamo app? Then contact info@mobidot.nl for the conditions. We help you to equip your panel members with Sesamo as quickly as possible, and you have direct insight into the panel's measured transport movements, through our portal or through data integration with your own server environment. The App uses location facilities even if the App is not active in the foreground. This can lead to additional battery consumption.

MeTrail automatically records the places you go, how long you stay, and the order of your day. No check-ins. Can't recall where you went last month, or how long each stop on that trip lasted? Open it and see. Add photos and notes to turn your footprints into a life log you can search. Ad-free, and your history stays on your device first. 【Automatic Recording】: · Arrivals, departures, and stay durations, recorded for you · Power Saving, Balanced, and Precise modes, and pause any time · Add or fix a visit by hand 【Look Back】: · Today shows the map and timeline, with paths between stops · Jump to any day in Calendar · Weekly, monthly, quarterly, and yearly reviews of your stats, top places, time by category, and best days · On This Day, plus country, city, and City Moves stats · Two or more days away from home become a trip, with a photo cover and a shareable story image · Widgets for today; the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island show your current stay 【Places and Memories】: · Every place keeps its full visit history, grouped by month, sorted into categories like dining and shopping; favorite the ones you go often · Photos, notes, and tags, with library photos matched to the stay · Each visit can show arrival weather, calendar events, street view, and places visited together, and place analysis charts the weather across your visits · Search by place, tag, or note, or open visits straight from Spotlight and Shortcuts 【Alerts】: · Alerts when you arrive or leave, each with its own style and sound · Forward alerts to Bark, Telegram, Discord, 12 more channels, or your own endpoint · Weekly and monthly review reminders, and milestone alerts for places you keep returning to 【Share, Export, and Privacy】: · Share cards in Map, Stats, and Minimal templates, with the option to hide the address · Export CSV / JSON / TXT / GPX / KML, with optional iCloud sync · App Lock with passcode and Face ID / Touch ID; no third-party trackers · Archive visits, and tidy up addresses, times, and duplicates any time · Smart Summaries are optional, off by default, and use your own AI service; only place names and times are sent, never coordinates, notes, or photos 【Battery Saving】: MeTrail does not keep GPS running like a navigation app. Power Saving, the default, relies on the system's own visit records at almost no extra cost. Switch to Balanced or Precise for faster alerts; Precise uses noticeably more battery and pauses when the battery runs low. All three modes record stays, not continuous routes. 【Contact Us】: Questions?
