I recently switch from an iPhone to a Pixel 8 Pro. The feature I miss
most is the ability to see where my immediate family is in the FindMy
app.

Is there a self-hostable solution that can replace the FindMy
capabilities?

can do this with google maps, but it is totally unreliable.   there
are other apps like life360 that have different membership tiers,
including a free one.

Thanks, but I'm looking for a self-hostable solution.

I havent had any reliability issues, lets you see where everyone is
between android and iphone.

Really easy learning curve and open source.

Owntracks or locus (f-droid) might be what you are looking for

Traccar is the best in my opinion
