*and then maybe sent it back to google anyways
I’ve always had location history disabled. I plan to keep it disabled.
What about “Location Accuracy”? Using WiFi and Bluetooth to higher accuracy on positioning?
I guess that’s on… fair enough, I’m sure Google has all my location data anyway :-P
I hope I can select to store it on Google. What happens if I change phones?
@petrescatraian it does? @ijeff
@utzer It currently does, afaik. That’s why I turned this off long ago, even though I found the feature quite useful. I might use it again in the future though if there will be credible signs this will no longer be the case.
For now, there are plenty of self-tracking apps if you’re into this. I personally use Transistor when I am going on hikes or various trips. It’s great if you want to have a journal of places with gpx tracks.
Is there anything as open as Transistor, but also as advanced as Google Timeline? I need snap-to-road (that’d be even better with OpenStreetMap data since their roads are way more accurate) and picking a mode of transportation (on foot, by bike etc.)
