This is a bit dated, but the case it not yet resolved. If you search it its still pending and in mediation. Life360 is looking to limit who it sells the info to in order to resolve the case. There is no debate that they were selling the info.

Yeah, that was going to be the second part of the question. Was it an all in one solution. There does seem to be a server side ulogger component but it may only be for viewing the data. Ill have to dig into the whole thing more to see what kind of FOSS self-hosted solution makes sense.
Yeah it’s a maybe, uLogger seems to let you choose which track you want to see. I presume the app lets you log to a specific track so you can have one for each person.
It might depend on what specific experience you’re looking for. For example, I log to Nextcloud and can view it there, but this is more of a “find my phone” plus tracking where I’ve been for myself (similar to Google Location History). While I’m sure I can set it up so others can see, it’s not really designed for it. It would also be a bit awkward as you’d have to log in to Nextcloud in a browser to see the locations (seems it’s possibly the same for uLogger).
I also run Home Assistant for home automation. I trigger automations off of my wife and my locations, but either of us can open the app and see at a glance where the other is (with pre-defined locations, such as “Home”, “School”, “@Dave’s Work”, etc, plus the ability to tap and see the exact location on a map).
That Home Assistant setup is much more useful for either of us seeing where the other is than I think the more dedicated tracking apps are, since they aren’t designed around sharing your location with others and that’s more of a side-function.
