Google Maps, the most widely used mapping and geolocation service in the world, continues to evolve to offer the best possible service to users. On this occasion, it has also been revamped its location history, which will now have a new design that prioritizes device storage, providing greater privacy to users initially.
In addition, there will still be the possibility to synchronize this history on other devices with the same Google account, so anyone who considers it useful to have their location history synchronized on different devices will be able to continue enjoying this functionality that has always worked in the cloud.
This is how your new history works
The new Google Maps history is very important. The service provided by Google has taken a step forward in this service to offer better quality in the possibilities it offers to its users. In fact, in this case, the improvement is in the path of privacy, since Google will start storing the Maps history on the same device, and as Google explains in its blog, you can even delete your history at specific times according to your interests.
Many of the current improvements are going in the direction of giving the user, not only greater privacy, but also greater control over their data. Thus, this change made in Maps will provide the possibility of this, taking a step forward in terms of user rights.
A time of great changes for Maps
Google Maps has not stopped making changes in recent months, and some of them, even bigger than its location history. For example, just recently, in the past few months Google Maps changed the design of its interface, using a new color palette that leaves behind the tones that the application had always used. That is why, from now on, the greens have a more “mint” tone, the roads have turned to a more grayish color, and the blue of the sea has become lighter.
Maps also strives to enhance its service in the face of advances in automobiles, and as a result, there are improvements focused on electric cars, being able to select that only gas stations with charging posts appear in the routes, an infrastructure that not all service stations have in Spain.
