Spotify wrapped started this trend seems other apps are following through. Seeing a summary of things you did with there app. Kind of gives you a hint how much other things are being tracked.

    I use the journalling app Daylio, which has a wrapped feature. It’s all done locally, on device. Not every implementation of this feature is spying on you.

      This app is pretty cool. Just saying this because it let me export my data when I wanted to stop using it. Which is not a common feature in proprietary software so hats off to the devs.

        not a common feature in proprietary software

        Just so you know, the GDPR mandates that you can at any time get a full export of all your personal data from anyone who’s processing it in a common, machine readable format. It is laudable though to have that integrated as a feature in the software, rather than jumping through hoops contacting support etc.

          Just to add on, it’s not just they let you export data in a cool PDF, it also lets you export the data as a CSV so it can be parsed by other things.
