I hope I can select to store it on Google. What happens if I change phones?

BearOfaTime,

Right in the title: “with encrypted cloud Backups”

petrescatraian,

@ijeff who cares if it will still be using this data for advertising...

petrescatraian,

@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.

I’ve always had location history disabled. I plan to keep it disabled.

Vendul,

He fell for it 😏

mindlight,

What about “Location Accuracy”? Using WiFi and Bluetooth to higher accuracy on positioning?
