FitTrackee Hosting Live In 5 Minutes

FitTrackee hosting on xCloud gives you a private, self-hosted outdoor activity tracker for importing, mapping and analysing runs, rides and hikes, instead of a hosted fitness network that keeps your location history. Deploy FitTrackee 1.3.5 and xCloud runs the pinned official image with a private PostGIS database, seeds an activated administrator with a generated password, and publishes it over HTTPS in minutes.

What is FitTrackee?

Self-hosted FitTrackee is a simple workout and activity tracker. Upstream's README describes a web application for tracking outdoor activities from files, with data on your own server, with workouts exported from phones and devices as files and map data from OpenStreetMap. A workout can also be added without a file. It is a self-hosted alternative to services such as Strava, and it is licensed AGPL-3.0.

On xCloud the template runs fittrackee/fittrackee v1.3.5, pinned by digest, with PostgreSQL 18 and PostGIS on a private network. It is the minimal single-user topology: Redis and background workers are omitted, so email delivery, data exports, archive uploads and Redis rate limiting are not enabled. Four named volumes hold the database, uploads, map cache and logs.

From Sign-Up to a Live FitTrackee Install In Just 3 Easy Steps

Self-hosting an activity tracker normally means an app container, a spatial database, four volumes to wire up, a domain and a certificate before a single workout is logged. This is the same result without assembling any of it.

  1. Step 01

    Sign Up

    Create your xCloud account and pick FitTrackee from the OneClick catalog. Choose your domain and enter the administrator email you want.

  2. Step 02

    We Deploy It For You

    One click. We bring up the official FitTrackee 1.3.5 image pinned by immutable digest, a private PostGIS database, generate a 20-character administrator password, mount all four persistent volumes and publish the app over HTTPS on your domain.

  3. Step 03

    Sign In And Log A Workout

    Open your HTTPS URL and sign in with the administrator email and generated password. Upload a GPX, FIT, TCX, KML or KMZ file — or create a workout manually — then confirm it appears in your workout list with its details and map. Review the registration and administration settings before inviting anyone else, and configure email separately if you want password resets to work.

Everything FitTrackee Does, On Your Own Server

FitTrackee runs in full here — a self-hosted activity tracker with a spatial database behind it, on infrastructure you control.

  • Import Every Common Format

    Bring in workouts as GPX, FIT, TCX, KML or KMZ files, from a watch, a phone app or another tracker.

  • Manual Activity Logging

    Log a run, ride, walk or hike by hand when you didn't record it with a device.

  • Stats And Mapped Routes

    Review distance, duration, pace and elevation for every activity, with the route drawn on a map.

  • Private PostGIS Storage

    Accounts, workouts and routes live in a PostGIS database reachable only from FitTrackee itself, never exposed to the internet.

  • Private By Default

    Nothing here is shared with a hosted fitness network — your workout and location history stays on the server you control.

  • Four Volumes, Fully Persistent

    Database, uploaded files, generated map cache and logs each persist on their own volume, all surviving a restart.

Everything You Need To Run Your Activity Tracking 24/7

Managed hosting for FitTrackee, so the parts that keep it online are not your problem.

  • FitTrackee 1.3.5 deployed instantly
  • Vendor-maintained pinned image digest
  • Administrator password generated for you
  • Private PostGIS database, not internet-facing
  • App origin bound to localhost
  • Free SSL certificate
  • Server backups and snapshots
  • Server security updates included
  • 30+ server locations
  • Unused balance refunded

What You Can Do With FitTrackee

  • A workout tracker with maps on your own server

    A runner or cyclist uploads GPX, FIT, TCX, KML or KMZ files exported from their phone or watch app and sees each route on an OpenStreetMap map with its statistics.

  • Keep your location history private

    Someone who does not want routes and locations held by a hosted fitness network stores the files and database on a Cloud VPS they control, with the PostGIS database off the public internet.

  • Log a workout without a file

    A user adds a manual workout by entering the details, for activities where no device recorded a trace, and sees it alongside imported activities in the same list.

  • Review activity over time

    An athlete browses the workout list, opens each activity with its details and map, and reads the statistics FitTrackee builds from the imported files over weeks and months.

FitTrackee vs Alternatives

Strava
Choose FitTrackee as a Strava alternative when you want workouts and routes on your own server. This is a category comparison from FitTrackee's side, and this minimal template leaves out upstream's email and background-worker features.
Endurain
Endurain is another self-hosted activity tracker with its own OneClick page. FitTrackee's pitch is workouts from files plus manual entry, OpenStreetMap maps, and optional extras that this minimal template leaves out.
Dawarich
Dawarich is a self-hosted location history tool with its own OneClick page. FitTrackee focuses on workouts imported from activity files rather than a continuous location timeline.
wger
wger is a self-hosted fitness and workout manager with its own OneClick page. It plans gym training and nutrition, where FitTrackee records outdoor activities with maps from file imports.

Hear what people are saying about us

See why agencies, developers, startups, and growing businesses choose xCloud to power their projects.

xCloud works really well, I am surprised by its performance being this the release version, I have tried many paid platforms such as runcloud, cloudpages or serveravatar, as well as free platforms such as CyberPanel, CloudPanel or Hestia Control Panel and direct competitors such as SpinupWP and FlyWP. Of all those that I have tried, the platform that works best for WordPress is SpinupWP and I believe that xCloud can reach and surpass that development, its roadmap is promising. Congratulations to the xCloud team, I hope they become the leading platform in the segment, it has all the potential to achieve it!

I've been with runcloud for the last 3 years. However, after trying xcloud for the last month, I'm switching over. They are on a roll with their setup.
Kevin Pineda
I'm moving my servers to xCloud, a cloud control panel by M Asif Rahman and the WPDeveloper team. Their roadmap looks interesting and no, there are no team mates nor API limits with xCloud! #xCloud #wordpress #hosting

xCloud is like having an expert server team on call — without the big agency costs. It's given me back my time and given my clients peace of mind. Highly recommended for freelancers and small teams who want reliable performance and security.
Dumitru Butucel
xCloud isn't just a solution. It's like one of that friend who got your back when you screw things up pretty bad.
Waqar Ahmed
Trust me when I say, once people explore the potential of xCloud they gonna switch from other panels, just keep delivering the best tech, lots of love for the team 😍😍
Rahul Singh
So far my experience has been smooth like silk. I didn't imagine that configuring and managing a VPS would be so easy. As of today, I have deployed 8 sites. The support is good, and they treat users with respect, even if they ask stupid questions (myself included). For the future, I hope for greater flexibility in scheduled backups and more comprehensive and consistent documentation. I'm sure that within a few months, xCloud will become the leader in its segment. This community is amazing, and the Staff here is super helpful.
Massimo Villa
Came from cloudways then to runcloud then to xcloud. Looks like I'm staying here.
Gerson El
I've recently taken all of my Vultr-hosted sites and gotten rid of cPanel for them to substitute it with xCloud. I have to say, I'm really impressed with xCloud so far! The interface is definitely the standout feature for me.
Tony Lewis
I came from Cloudways and won't go back. Highly impressed with xCloud. Glad I gave them a chance.
Jared McDowell
I like xCloud better than RunCloud, but one thing I'll point out is that some years ago RunCloud was hungry for business, the support was outstanding, and the community was active and helped each other. Maybe it was sold, there was a change in management, or they stopped being hungry, but the quality of the RunCloud offering declined and it hasn't been moving forward quickly. My point is that currently the xCloud team has the edge and it is theirs to keep or lose

How Kevin Heinrichs Cut Hosting Costs by 84% While Running WooCommerce & Node.js Sites Efficiently
Kevin Heinrichs
I had 150 sites on cloudways and am in the process of moving them to xcloud. Much faster and better priced.
Dan Spinoza
Dear xCloud Team, I have been using xCloud for some time now and am genuinely impressed with its capabilities and the flexibility it offers by allowing users to bring their own VPS for management. It's a fantastic service, and my experience so far has been very positive. Successful migrated 5 sites on a single server. Xcloud migration tool worked great. There were few hiccups with security plugin like MalCare but disabling the plugin prior to migration worked just fine.

Frequently Asked Questions

Feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns you may have.

Is FitTrackee free and open source?

Yes. FitTrackee is licensed under the GNU Affero General Public License v3, so the tracker costs nothing in licences. xCloud bills for the dedicated Cloud VPS, and your workouts stay on your own volumes. This template adds no paid tier.

Can I run FitTrackee with Docker?

Yes, and this template does it for you: the fittrackee/fittrackee v1.3.5 image and a PostGIS database, pinned by digest, with four named volumes behind HTTPS. It is FitTrackee Docker hosting without writing the compose file, and it targets amd64 servers.

How much RAM does a FitTrackee cloud server need?

Count on 1536 MB of RAM, 2 CPU cores and 10 GB of disk at least; the 6 GB Cloud VPS sold here suits a FitTrackee cloud install. Large activity libraries grow the database and map cache, so watch disk.

Which file formats can FitTrackee import?

The template README names GPX, FIT, TCX, KML and KMZ workout files, and you can also create a workout manually. Upstream's README explains that phone and device apps export workouts into files you then upload. Archive uploads are not enabled in this minimal template.

Does FitTrackee work with smartwatches and apps?

Indirectly. Upstream says several mobile apps and devices store workout data locally and export it into a file, and lists examples such as OpenTracks and OsmAnd for Android. Gadgetbridge has no integration, so you upload exported files rather than syncing live.

Can anyone register on my FitTrackee?

New registrations are created inactive and stay that way until an administrator activates them under Administration, Users, because email confirmation is not configured. Only the seeded administrator account is active out of the box, so review the administration settings after you sign in.

Does FitTrackee send email?

No. Redis and the background workers that upstream's multi-user topology uses are omitted, so email delivery is not enabled by this template. That also affects user-data exports and archive uploads. Plan on administrators activating accounts by hand.

How do I back up FitTrackee?

Take one backup of fittrackee_db, fittrackee_uploads, fittrackee_staticmap_cache and fittrackee_logs together. Prefer a PostgreSQL-native dump for an active database, stop the services for a filesystem snapshot, keep APP_SECRET_KEY, and test a restore in an isolated install.

How do I update FitTrackee?

There are no automatic upgrades. Release v1.3.5 is fixed by digest and catalogue changes reach new installs only. Read the changelog, back up all four volumes, keep APP_SECRET_KEY, then adopt a newer template version; migrations run on start.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. There is no lock-in — cancel any time. Hosting is billed monthly and charged for what you actually use, so when you delete the server the unused balance is refunded to your account, less up to 10% in payment-processing fees.
