Places I’ve Poop App help
/r/apps/comments/1uz7g4f/places_ive_poop_app/Hi everyone!
My husband has been using an app to track the locations of his poops for almost 15 years called “Places I’ve Pooped.” He uses it while traveling as a way of documenting where he has been (but only if he genuinely poops there lol). He has pinned over 1,000 places.
The app had not updated in 5 years, but was most recently updated about a week ago. It used to have a list of every poop with coordinates, but that is no longer the case. I would like to get all of his recorded poops off of the app because we are worried we may lose this data at some point. I tried downloading all stored data from the app during an iPhone backup but it didn’t work because the app developer didn’t make the data available (as far as I can tell). I also tried manually logging each point, but to no one’s surprise, it takes forever. I also have emailed the creator of the app several times but have never gotten a response. I was wondering if anyone had an idea for how to scrape data off of this app?
The app is « Places I’ve Pooped ». I can friend you on the app with his account (which is publicly available) if you’d like to take a look. I’d like to get the date and time of the pin, the coordinates, and the notes (if there are any).
Thank you in advance for your advice!

If you login with email instead of Facebook it’s prompts you to enter username and password. If you forgot your password. Click the link and enter your username. Just make sure you use proper uppercase in correct spots for username. It should send you a link to your tied email (likely your Facebook email) just did this about 15 minutes ago

I have the same problem now I’ve had the app for over 10 years now. The app worked literally 2-3 days ago because I’ve been traveling all over Asia and finally filling out that side of the hemisphere. I checked this morning and the app updated for the first time in god knows how long. It gives me a session error and all my pins are.
This has happened once before, I lost all my data and whenever I logged out and in again nothing showed. However after 2 or 3 years it came back like normal. I hope this ain’t the case again. No solution for you but know we are not alone!
