Google Maps has gotten some fun updates recently, and now it�s offering some more privacy-forward tweaks as it adds more ways to control your location data. It starts, as so many journeys do with that little blue dot in Google Maps: aka, you... or, your current location at least.
Right now, tapping the blue dot in Google Maps offers shortcuts to save your parking or share your location. This update � which I�m already seeing on my Pixel 8 Pro review unit � adds options for device location and location history. You can see at a glance whether they�re on or off, and you can toggle them with just a couple of taps.
