According to Google's official announcement, the user tracking feature will be completely disabled in September, meaning you will no longer be able to be tracked or tracked by anyone through the platform.
This removal will be done automatically, without requiring users to perform any operations. Google also said that all data related to followers and followers will be deleted, ensuring privacy and personal information security.
Although the tracking feature is about to be terminated, Google Maps continues to provide other ways for users to connect and explore.
The Local Guides Connect platform, where "local guides" share experiences and favorite locations, will still operate normally.
Users can also continue to create and share a list of locations, as well as contribute reviews and images on the map.
The decision comes shortly after an app analysis revealed Google's intention to cut some of its user-connected features, to make Google Maps more compact and focus on navigation, a core function of the app.
In addition, Google Maps has recently encountered another problem related to vehicle control features.
The music player buttons have temporarily disappeared from the navigation interface, causing many users to worry that this function is also deleted.
However, Google confirmed that this was just a technical error and quickly deployed a fix through the server update. Currently, music controls have returned to normal operation on many devices.
The upcoming change shows that Google is restructuring some side effects to focus on enhancing the main experience, navigation and discovery.
Users should pay close attention to the next updates to avoid missing any important adjustments from this map application.
