Why it surfaced
Croovka takes the slightly unromantic file location-history.json and turns it into a 10–60 second MP4 with a moving marker, fading trail, and closing overview. Its strongest detail is the privacy constraint: parsing, preview, and rendering stay on the iPhone, with no account, upload, analytics, or ads.
