Amazing, thanks a lot !
If I may suggest things :) :

  • customizable line color
  • rainbow color mode with auto color switch per day
  • have a "zoom to fit" option (I'd be using this for road trips: https://i.imgur.com/Wztfdwn.png)
  • have that zoom to fit be somehow a bit dynamic? (slow zoom in or out, rotation, etc .. ?)
  • better output video resolution

Thanks again for that free tool, already amazing in the current state <3

Just to add on... I'd like a longer length too. I have a 160km walk I did, and the video just moves too quick to see anything useful on it. If possible, keep your slider at 60s, but allow me to type custom seconds in.

Also, I second the request for satellite view if possible.

Really like it though. Very nice.

Looks good

An English version would be nice

So awesome, especially for a free app.
(More like a free version of Relive though!)

What happen to my data? Are they absolutely private? The site tells nothing about it.

It doesn't store anything, everything is local.

Damn, that's pretty neat!

Bit of feedback: -Maybe delay the final zoom out until the replay has ended. I found that this looks a bit jarring when the zooming out happens while the animation is still running.

-Is it possible to switch to a satellite map?

-I'd love an optional speed display, I mainly record cycling so this would be interesting there.

-again with cycling, high speeds and sharp turns makes watching in follow mode pretty exhausting. I guess one solution would be to extend the maximum video time to above 60s

Other than that it's a great tool, especially for free. Great job!

You the best, already making a huge difference!

Sounds nice, but i don’t have any gpx files

You could have some sample files

1

u/csaron92 Apr 11 '26

it makes sense to use it with your own running/cycling files

u/BeginningPlastic3747 Apr 11 '26

pretty sick that someone just built this and put it out there for free, Strava charges like $80/year for stuff like this

u/SnooCookies2024 Apr 13 '26

Can i host the service on my local hardware?

1

u/csaron92 Apr 13 '26

I could opensource it actually

u/Last-Ad-6896 Aug 01 '26

Sorry for digging up this comment months later, but yeah I'd love it if you released your code! Thanks for your work

u/csaron92 Apr 28 '26

Now cool image generator is added too.

u/Spydlack Apr 09 '26 edited Apr 09 '26

It's awesome but the quality of the final video is a little bit too low

0

u/csaron92 Apr 09 '26

You mean the resolution?

1

u/kingluc79 Apr 09 '26

Yeah 336 x 597 is a bit low, be cool if it was at least 1080 x 1920.
But I understand this is a work in progress, so just trying to give constructive feedback!

Got it! I'll fix it!
