I'm building a privacy-first fitness / health tracker.
I managed to lose a lot of weight during lockdown with the help of fitbit but using a Google service to handover my most personal of data doesn't sit right with me (it served a purpose).
So I've started to build what I need from a tracker.
Where I'm heading generally:
- Platform / API access (so you OWN your data)
- Client-side encryption - No tracking / knowledge
- Weight, Calories, Diet, Run
- Import GPS from Garmin etc.. graph/store/play
_cringe_ but what do I have to lose
(best viewed on mobiles for now - haven't considered a desktop yet)
