View Tracking History in Google Maps If Google Maps is installed on your phone and Location Services is turned on for the app, you can easily view your location history with Timeline: Open Google Maps and tap your profile photo. Select Your timeline from the menu.

Step 1: Launch your Google Maps app or visit the website: maps.google.com. Step 2: Log into the Google account that is linked to the mobile number. Step 3: Click on the hamburger icon to load the app menu. Step 4: Select Your timeline, click the calendar icon, choose a date, and check its location history.

In order to view the location data already collected through your Gmail account, navigate over to: maps.google.com/locationhistory – Once you've reached this page, if you aren't already logged in, you'll have to log in to your Gmail account. Then the Google location history page will appear.

In the search bar, enter a destination or tap it on the map. Follow the on-screen instructions to help Maps find your location. Tip: Point your phone camera at buildings and signs across the street, instead of trees and people. Once Maps knows where you are, you'll get directions through the camera view on your screen.
