I use owntracks to send location data to my own server.
In the logfile, I see that owntracks suddenly stops working, and I don't understand why.

The logfile says:

2024-11-08T18:49:05.347Z  [Connection] sendData(152):owntracks/abcdef/Abcdef {"_type":"location","acc":225,"alt":568,"batt":30,"bs":1,"conn":"m","lat":xx.xxxxxx,"lon":y.yyyyyy,"m":2,"p":95.706,"tid":"Ar","tst":1731091745,"vac":3} q1 r1
2024-11-08T18:49:06.069Z  [OwnTracksAppDelegate] applicationWillTerminate
2024-11-08T18:49:06.069Z  [Connection] disconnect
2024-11-09T10:14:52.592Z  [OwnTracksAppDelegate] OwnTracks starting 18.0.4/en_CH (null)

Apparently, the application terminates after sending its position. On November 9th, it started up again, but that happened because the app was started manually.
Why did owntracks shut down (or was shut down by iOS), and what can I do to prevent that?

  • Did you update your iOS recently? There were problems reported in the past which could be solved by re-starting the iPhone.
  • Please check in Settings/Apps/Owntracks that Location permissions are "always" and Background is enabled
