Hey friends,
Ever tried looking back at your Google Maps Timeline to remember a great restaurant from a trip, track your travel mileage, or just see where a specific day went, only to find yourself squinting at a messy interface?
If you've ever wanted to just grab your location history and put it into a clean, easy-to-read spreadsheet, you know Google doesn't make it simple.
That’s exactly why I built the Google Maps Timeline Data Converter!
What does it do?
It takes the raw, cluttered location data from your Google account and transforms it into an organized spreadsheet. But it doesn't just copy and paste the mess—it actually cleans it up for you.
Filters Out the Noise: It automatically strips away non-location events like walking, cycling, or driving transit, and deletes annoying duplicate entries so you're left with just the actual places you visited.
Smart File Splitting: Many custom map platforms limit how many rows of data you can upload at once. This tool automatically splits your records into perfectly sized, separate files so you can import them seamlessly without hitting any system walls.
Why you’ll love it:
One Clean, Master List: If you've switched between Android and Apple, or have data trapped in both old and new Google timeline formats, this app refactors and merges everything into one cohesive, standardized file.
Map Your Own Adventures: You can take your polished new files and easily upload them to Google My Maps or other mapping platforms to visually map out your entire travel history.
Create Segmented Maps: Want a map that only shows your epic summer road trip or a specific weekend getaway? Because the data is beautifully organized, you can easily filter it to create custom, segmented maps for specific trips or time periods.
100% Private: Your location data is sensitive. This tool runs entirely right on your own computer screen, meaning your personal data never gets sent to a random server or shared with anyone. It stays yours.
If this tool saved you a massive headache, helped you bring your travel memories back to life, or made your data mapping a breeze, consider buying me a coffee! Your support keeps me fueled up and building handy tools like this one.
