Now these are not always places I have put into a Google search entry.
Those places will be somewhere picked up by a GPS enabled Android
device that's logged in as you and enabled for location history.
I have been watching my location history for some time.Â* A couple of
years ago I spent a day at the Great Dorset steam fair.Â* As far as my
location history was concerned I had spent most of the day in a field in
Dorset with a couple of quick trips during the day to Liverpool.
I can only assume that the portable mobile mast being used at the GDSF
had previously been used in Liverpool and was reporting a false location
- to Google at least if not to the telcos.
Other than that it has been pretty good.
If using location history on a PC the settings cog allows you to show
raw data which comes complete with an error ring
And it also shows photos taken on the day!
