Google Maps users may have noticed changes to their location timeline feature. Previously cloud-based, this tracking of routes and trips was moved to local smartphone storage last year due to privacy considerations. The timeline, which historically allowed users to review past travel routes, is now stored directly on individual devices.
For those interested in accessing their location history, recovery methods are currently available. However, the longevity of this data retrieval option remains uncertain. Users who wish to review their past movement patterns should consider exploring their device's location settings to access this potentially temporary feature.
