I don't even have to say how useful and necessary GPS is. Google has used it wisely and implemented it in its services and devices, as well as in the Android system itself. For example, we can use Google maps only as a city map, or as navigation. But what if we don't use either? Google still records your movements.
Yes, if GPS on your phone is turned on and you haven’t launched any GPS apps, Google still records your location. Someone will think it’s great, there’s a history of the movement, they can review, share again, and yet someone cares about their privacy and is already looking at how to stop it.
First, check to see if Google has recorded your movements at this link https://maps.google.com/locationhistory/b/0. Select a period, and the route of your movement with the correct time will be drawn on the map.
On the left, below the calendar, there are options for deleting history.
