If you have Google Maps on your smartphone - no matter if its an iPhone or Android - it’s already doing this. It’ll even tell you if you took any pictures that day and where you took them, according to Inc. The tracking record is called Google Maps “Timeline.” You can input any day and it’ll give you a record of the entire day’s travels. Its incredibly useful - you can check Twitter if you’re stuck in line at the grocery store, listen to music while you run, call your family to ask them what they want for dinner and get directions when you’re lost.īut a new CNBC report found the Google Maps app contains a detailed record of every stop you make, every day, what mode of transportation you used to get there, where you parked and the exact time you arrived - even when you’re not using the app. I hope you like this post and find it useful, specially when it comes to make your lists with those places you are recommending.If you’re like most people, you take your smartphone with you everywhere you go. So now it says I was in my university on the day I got graduated. I'm guessing that was the time I was at my university during my graduation date. It tends to assume by default you were there since the previous day but you can change that: Then I will have to choose the stimated time (date/hour) I was there. So I write the name of my university and choose the location. So first, I go to the timeline and choose the date:Īs you can see, right in the bottom it says that I don't have any locations for that date and gives me the option to add one manually so I click on there. Btw, my native language is Spanish, I hope you still can follow/understand in your own language. Scroll down and tap on Location History is on. Tap the menu button in the top-right corner, and tap Settings and privacy.

So how to do it? Here it's an example with my University, of course I was there on the day I my graduation although apparently back then the Google timeline didn't exist. Open Google Maps, swipe in from the left edge and tap Your Timeline. I mean, it's good to know that you where there for fact and you know what you are talking about, right? Maybe I'm just a bit nerdy-obsessed on the subject, maybe you agree with me and would like to make those extra addings to your timeline. So what if you went to a place long time ago, you want to write a recommendation but it doesn't appear in your Google Maps timeline? I consider it is important for our timeline to be a proof of those places we are recommending.
