I think OpenTracks does everything you want. It's a very nice app, and while they don't charge if you find it useful I'd encourage donating.

Google had an app called MyTracks[1] a while ago which was a very nice and simple way to have an offline google map and record your tracks. They deprecated and open-sourced it. Apparently, it's living on as OpenTracks[2].

Looking for a privacy respecting jogging app
3 projects | /r/privacy | 15 Aug 2022

Hi, I'm currently looking for a running app that can keep track of my run and my statistics without using them or selling them to a third-party company. I've already done some research and found OpenTracks but I want to know if there's any alternative to it that could be better (even if OpenTracks isn't bad honestly).

Help: I once used an app from F-Droid that allowed me to check what data apps were collecting, a long time ago when I actually didn't care about privacy. Can you help me finding that (or similar) app/tools?

Tracking in general. An app doesn't need your camera to see you're connecting from the US, with an expensive phone, or even the list of apps you have installed. Android has some alternatives to showing these, but they're not built in. Exodus is the one I use.
