Dear iDevice users, from now you can track you own iPhone or iPad without using third party paid services, like  Find my iPhone by Apple.  All this could be done by free app called iPhone Tracker. This open source application maps and tracks the information that your iPhone is recording about your movements. It doesn't record anything itself, it only displays files that are already hidden on your computer.

iPhone Tracker Features:

If you run it on an OS X machine that you've been syncing with an iPhone or an iPad with cellular plan, it will scan through the backup files that are automatically made, looking for the hidden file containing your location. If it finds this file, it will then display the location history on the map. It will be stored in a folder inside

/Users//Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/

Each time you sync up an iOS device (iPad, iPhone, etc) files will be copied into a new folder here. The names of the folders and the files within them are mostly random strings, but there are some index files like Info.plist and Manifest.mbdb. Find the folder that has the most recent backup by looking at the modified dates of the files. Then, load Info.plist into a text editor to see what device it's for. You should see a 'Device Name' value in the XML, make sure that it matches your iPhone. There's no user interface to choose different devices, it just picks the most recently synced iPad or iPhone with valid data. This means you can usually view a particular device's information by syncing it, so that it's files are the newest, and then re-running the application.
