- otoburb 12y agoThanks for the reminder. I never clicked through to my location history before, even though I abstractly knew it existed. Quite an eye opener seeing your daily movements plotted on a map.
- scintill76 12y agoWhere do they get the data? I just checked mine and have nothing for the last 30 days. But I only sparingly log in to Google in an incognito window, don't have the Google apps on my Android phone, don't use Google Maps much, etc., so I didn't expect anything. Also, does anyone have a good solution for tracking yourself, for purposes like reconstructing the time/date you were somewhere? I used a GPS logging app for awhile, but I don't remember if I ever even looked at the data. I had concerns about battery life, and how to use the data even if I got it reliably and efficiently.
- NeutronBoy 12y agoIf you use Google Now, and have Location Services and Location History turned on, it'll triangulate your phone periodically. Both of these you can turn off, and I believe are off by default until an app prompts you to enable them.
