Using Timeline, you can neatly view your Google Maps location history, with additional data like how you went somewhere and how much time you spent there.

Apart from being able to view your travel history, Google Maps also lets you turn off the location saver feature, delete your location history, and even download a copy of all your Maps data. We'll show you how.

How to Delete Your Location History on Google Maps

Select the data you want to download. Tap Next step. Then, choose how you want to download a copy of your data.
