uMap VS OwnTracks Recorder

Umap?

If that's not feasible and what you're doing isn't secret then perhaps something like uMap might work? This allows you to add overlays for the things you want to highlight and has a few different styles of basemap that tone down some of the clutter of the default "default" style. It also lets you pull (small amounts) of data into it via Overpass e.g. pre-mapped fishing spots or toilets. This can then be shared as a link or embedded in a site.

Having an OSM basemap overlaid with points is easily possible with uMap, for example https://umap.openstreetmap.fr/

Have you used the OpenStreetMap ecosystem of ID/JSOM or maybe uMap (https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/UMap) if you need the data separated from OSM?

Not an App, but did you take a look at https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/UMap? With it you can make personal maps with OSM base layers.

Depends what you mean by private. For something shareable on the web you might want to try one of the uMap instances, not sure if you can keep them secret though. If you decide to use them I recommend you log into an OSM account first as otherwise it is very easy to lose the edit link.

For public display one of the uMap instances is probably easiest. It should allow you to import your previously exported points and also allows line and area attributes. The share link included embed code for a website. The instance linked by /u/beardy64 is probably the most popular, but there are several listed at my previous link. I would recommend you log in before creating the maps as without a login you have to carefully keep track of you edit URL's if you might ever want to update things.

If someone is looking for an open-source webinterface for OpenStreetMap that offers a bit more eye candy, I recommend taking a look at Qwant Maps. Another useful OSM tool is uMap (source).

Some people have issues installing Own Track's Recorder - This one is very minimal and saves your locations to an sqlite file.

I also use OwnTracks on my phone and installed OwnTracks Recorder on my server. I skimmed over my blog post for that but I don't think there's much useful for you there.

I've looked at OwnTracks, Orion, and Hauk.

As far as I know, owntracks doesn't actually store location history, it only defines a protocol for exchanging current location info between programs. If you're using their "official" recording server, writing a script to import history looks super easy [1].

After setting up the client side, a server-side component to receive the OwnTracks app's requests is still missing. OwnTracks ships with its Recorder, which is a small and simple web application written in C. However, I did not like it a lot, as it does not look particularly beautiful and is very limited regarding its functionality. I rather wanted to visualize my data in Grafana. But to get it there, it first needs to be persisted to a database.
