Google keeps track of your traffic history

By Administrator

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.

Mobile Browsers

The Internet on mobile devices is becoming more popular and has more and more users. As mobile internet expands, so do mobile browsers. Although the devices themselves already have built-in basic internet browsers, new browsers are constantly appearing. The reason is that each of the programs brings something new and useful. For example, Opera Mini is most popular on older phone models that use Java applications, while on Android platforms Chrome , Firefox ,  Dolphin , and xScope are more represented.

Sony Xperia Z5 Dual Sim review [video + images]

By Administrator
The Xperia Z5 is another great flagship model from the Z family of devices that Sony launched in September this year, about a month ago. The case design is great . The side edges are slightly curved to make the phone fit better in the hand, and the back of the device has a fine finish so there are no glare and fingerprints.
