This is how your new history works

The new Google Maps history is very important. The service provided by Google has taken a step forward in this service to offer better quality in the possibilities it offers to its users.

Many of the current improvements are going in the direction of giving the user, not only greater privacy, but also greater control over their data. Thus, this change made in Maps will provide the possibility of this, taking a step forward in terms of user rights.

A time of great changes for Maps

Google Maps has not stopped making changes in recent months, and some of them, even bigger than its location history. For example, just recently, in the past few months Google Maps changed the design of its interface, using a new color palette that leaves behind the tones that the application had always used. That is why, from now on, the greens have a more “mint” tone, the roads have turned to a more grayish color, and the blue of the sea has become lighter.

Maps also strives to enhance its service in the face of advances in automobiles, and as a result, there are improvements focused on electric cars, being able to select that only gas stations with charging posts appear in the routes, an infrastructure that not all service stations have in Spain.
