Most of the people using Android mobile use Google Maps navigation app which is already present in the phone, but maybe you don’t know that Google Maps knows all the details of when and where you have been. You need to know how Google keeps track of your every activity. You should also know how to stop Google Maps. Yes, you read that correctly. You can also stop Google Maps from doing this, but for that you’ll have to try a simple trick.

Open the Google Maps app on your phone.
Tap your profile picture or initials in the upper right corner of the screen.
Here you will see many options, among which click on the Your Timeline option.
After tapping on the timeline, click on the three dots on the right side and go to the location and privacy settings.

After that, if the Timeline On feature is enabled in the location setting of the app, immediately disable this setting.
