Open-source, self-hosted activity tracking

What is this?

BincioActivity is a free, open-source platform for tracking your outdoor activities β€” cycling, running, hiking, and more. It is designed to be self-hosted: you (or someone you trust) run the server, and your data stays under your control.

Activities are stored in an open JSON format called BAS (BincioActivity Schema), which is designed to be readable and portable. The platform has no hidden analytics, no advertising, and no third-party data sharing.

Joining & invitations

This instance is invite-only. To join, you need an invite link from an existing member β€” each link is single-use and tied to a unique code.

Once you have an account, you can generate up to 3 invite links to share with people you trust. You can manage your invites from the invites page (requires login).

Your data on this server

When you upload a FIT, GPX, or TCX file, the server converts it to BAS format. By default the original source file is also kept in your account's originals/ folder. You can opt out of this at upload time by unchecking "Keep original file on server".

Keeping originals is recommended during these early stages of the project: if the processing pipeline improves (better elevation smoothing, speed calculation, lap detection, etc.) you can re-import your files to take advantage of the changes. If you chose not to keep originals, you would need to upload the files again manually.

When syncing from Strava, the raw activity data fetched from the Strava API can similarly be stored locally. This is controlled by an instance-wide setting configured by the server operator.

Early-stage software

BincioActivity is under active development. The data format, processing pipeline, and server API may change between versions. Breaking changes are possible, especially at this stage. When they occur, re-importing your original files is the safest way to bring your data up to date.

There is no guarantee of uptime, data integrity, or forward compatibility for any particular version. Use this software at your own risk, and keep your own backups of important data.

Disclaimer

BincioActivity is provided "as is", without warranty of any kind. The authors and server operators accept no responsibility for:

  • Loss, corruption, or unauthorised access to your activity data
  • Data exposed through misconfiguration of the server or infrastructure
  • Inaccuracies in computed statistics (distance, elevation, heart rate, etc.)
  • Any consequences of acting on information displayed by this application

You are responsible for securing your account with a strong password, reviewing what data you share, and making your own backups. GPS and health data can be sensitive β€” think carefully about what you upload and who can see it.

Open source

BincioActivity is open-source software. You are free to inspect the code, self-host your own instance, and contribute improvements.
