Check your Google Maps NOW: Navigation app will permanently delete important data from your account - here's how to save it

Google Maps users have been urged to act now to avoid permanently losing their important data. Starting next year, the popular navigation app will begin deleting users' personal Timeline from its servers. Originally known as Location History, this feature tracks Google Maps users' every movement, keeping a record of places visited and routes taken. However, according to emails received by Google Maps users, this feature is set to vanish from June 9, 2025, along with almost a decade of user data. Google says it will be moving users' movement history from the cloud to a more secure on-device option.
