Reitti is a self-hosted personal location tracking and analysis application that helps you understand your movement patterns and significant places. The name comes from Finnish, meaning "route" or "path".

The main view — interactive timeline on the left, live map on the right.

• Interactive Timeline – Daily timeline showing visits and trips with duration and distance info.
• Visit & Trip Detection – Automatically identifies places you spend time and tracks movements between them, including transport-mode detection (walking, cycling, driving).
• Significant Places – Recognize and name the locations you visit frequently.
• Raw GPS Tracks – Visualize your complete movement path.
• Multi-User View – See all your family and friends on a single map.
• Live Mode – Watch incoming data appear on the map automatically — perfect for a kiosk display in fullscreen.

Live location sharing — follow family and friends on a single map, across instances, or via magic links.

Reitti lets you share your live location with others — and see theirs in return.

• Same-instance sharing – Connect with other users on your Reitti instance and follow each other's positions in real time.
• Federation – Connect to other Reitti instances to share locations across servers. Your data stays on your own server; only live positions are exchanged with trusted instances you configure.
• Magic Links – Share a link with anyone — even people without an account on your instance. They'll be able to see your live position (and optionally your recent track) for as long as the link remains valid. Great for sharing your ETA with friends or letting someone follow your journey.

See the Live Sharing Guide for setup details.

The workbench — drag misplaced GPS points to their correct location and stitch data from different devices together.

Reitti supports tracking multiple devices per user. Data ingested into the default device is automatically stitched together into a single personal timeline. For other devices, you can use the workbench to manually stitch their data by selecting the device and a time range — so you never lose a moment, even when you switch between your phone, a dedicated GPS logger, or other sources.

The workbench also lets you clean up your data directly on the map:

• Move GPS points – Drag misplaced points to their correct location.
• Delete GPS points – Remove outliers or erroneous data with one click.

See the Devices Guide for setup details.

Custom map styles — the same location rendered with different styles.

You are no longer locked into a single look. Reitti lets you fully customize how your map appears:

• Upload your own map style files.
• Link to remote style URLs (e.g. from MapTiler, Stadia Maps, or your own tile server).
• Switch between styles instantly from the map view.

See the Map Styles Guide for details.

Photo integration — photos from Immich appear on your timeline at the locations where they were taken.

• Integrate with a self-hosted Immich server.
• Photos taken at specific locations and dates appear on your timeline.
• Full-screen photo viewer with keyboard navigation and organized galleries.

Statistics — distance charts, top places, and transport-mode breakdowns.

Get insights into your movement patterns with summary statistics and visualizations.

• Your location data never leaves your server.
• Live location sharing only transmits your current position to instances and users you explicitly trust.
• Magic links are revocable at any time and only expose what you choose to share.
• Reverse geocoding works out of the box using hosted Paikka instances — or configure your own geocoder if you prefer.
• Deploy on your own infrastructure with Docker.
• Multi-user support with full data isolation.
• OIDC / single sign-on support.

The fastest way to try Reitti is with Docker Compose:

mkdir reitti && cd reitti
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dedicatedcode/reitti/refs/heads/main/docker-compose.yml
docker compose up -d

Then open http://localhost:8080. On first login you'll be prompted to set a new admin password. A default API token is created automatically for you, so you can jump straight into connecting your devices.

ARM64 users (Apple Silicon, etc.): Until postgis/docker-postgis#216 is resolved, change the PostGIS image in the compose file to imresamu/postgis:17-3.5-alpine.

1. Set Up Devices – Settings → Devices → see the Devices Guide.
2. Connect a Mobile App – Settings → Integrations → see the Mobile App Guide. Your default API token is ready to use.
3. Import Data – Settings → Import Data → see the Data Import Guide.
4. Customize Your Map – Settings → Map Styles → see the Map Styles Guide.
5. Share Your Live Location – Settings → Live Sharing → see the Live Sharing Guide.

Reitti publishes several Docker image tags to serve different needs:

Recommendation: For most self-hosters we recommend using the major-version tag (e.g. reitti:5). It gives you bug fixes and new features within the current major version automatically, while protecting you from breaking changes that come with a new major release. Pin a full version (e.g. reitti:5.0.2) if you need strict reproducibility — for example, in automated deployments or when you want to upgrade manually after testing.

For the full list of environment variables, deployment options, and OIDC setup, see the Infrastructure Documentation.

• Back up regularly: the PostGIS database and the Reitti storage volume (uploaded files).
• Redis and other stateless services do not need to be backed up.
