Google Maps Timeline

paintitwhite

Hi guys, not sure if this is the correct place to ask.

I loved looking at my Google maps timeline and under the places tab seeing all the places I had been to.

Now it only shows the places I have been in the last 30 days or so and I didn't change any settings. Is there any way thar I can rectify this?

Thanks

Hi,

have you received any msg from Google ?

See :- https://support.google.com/maps/community-guide/276228911/changes-underway-for-google-maps-timeline?hl=en

You could click on your profile pic in maps, then select "your timeline" and then make any changes necessary

Is it already too late when the places already appear to be gone? Thanks for your help.

Hi,

Not sure. But on your timeline, tap the 3 dots (Top Right) and it says

"If you have settings like Web & App Activity turned on and you turn off Location History or delete location data from Location History, you may still have location data saved in your Google Account as part of your use of other Google Sites, apps and services. This activity can include info about your location from your device’s general area and IP address. For example, location data may be saved as part of activity on Search and Google Maps when your Web & App Activity setting is on, and included in your photos, depending on your camera app settings."

And go to "Settings and Privcy" and turn on "Location" and Location History" and just hope for the best
