Google Maps is one of those apps we use without thinking twice. Need directions? Open it. Looking for a restaurant? Open it. Trying to remember where you went three Tuesdays ago? Yep, Google Maps might know that too.
The convenience is great, but there’s a slightly creepy side to having an app that remembers your searches, tracks your routes, collects your reviews, and shows strangers what your house looks like.
Sometimes, the information we casually leave behind can reveal far more than we intended.
Here are 6 ways Google Maps can know, or accidentally reveal, much more about you than you might expect.
