Beyond fitness tracking, your smartphone can chronicle various aspects of your life. Imagine visualizing your music listening history over years, or charting your travels. The right apps make this possible.

Track Your Music with Last.fm

While streaming services track your listening, Last.fm offers a broader view, aggregating data across multiple platforms. No app download might be necessary; it's integrated into some services like Spotify. Visualize your top artists, albums, and songs over time, and receive personalized music recommendations.

Last.fm is free on Android, iOS, Windows, macOS, and the web.

Track Your Journeys with Google Maps

Google Maps records your location history (requires opt-in), allowing you to revisit past journeys by day, month, or year via the Timeline feature (accessible through your profile avatar). This data also fuels location recommendations. Remember, location tracking is off by default and can be disabled anytime in your Google account settings under Data & Privacy > History settings > Location History.

Google Maps is free on Android, iOS, iPadOS, Apple Watch, and the web.

Track Your Movie Watching with Letterboxd

Letterboxd is a cinephile's dream. Track viewed and desired films, share your selections, and explore detailed film information. Rate movies, write reviews, and create custom lists (e.g., favorite horror films).

Letterboxd is free on Android, iOS, iPadOS, Apple TV, and the web; a $19 annual subscription removes ads.

Track Your Habits with Streaks

Streaks helps cultivate daily habits—from dog walking to flossing. Manually log daily progress to build streaks and maintain motivation. Visualize your progress to boost willpower.

Streaks costs $5 on Mac, iOS, iPadOS, and Apple Watch.

Track Your Reading with Goodreads

Track Your Hydration with WaterMinder

WaterMinder provides hydration reminders based on your weight, activity, and weather. Monitor your daily water intake and view your hydration history.

Exist costs $6 monthly or $57 annually (with a 30-day free trial) for its web app; limited companion apps are available for Android, iOS, and iPadOS.

Correction January 10, 2022: The Google Maps section previously stated that Google tracks your location by default. This has been corrected; the feature is off by default.
