Google maps failed to add all the locations I visited to the timeline
There were no records for four days consecutively and sometime it missed one or two locations.
I used this features for long time and it worked well.
The problem started since mid August.
I didn’t change the setting in my phone. I allow background app and always allow location service for google maps

I am a big fan of Google Maps. I usually browse lots of information and places that can foster my visits and travel. I can also realise the latest development of other cities abroad to broaden my views.
However, this app is now become not user-friendly. Lots of features are now hard to use and not customised. One thing that disturbs me the most is the spreading spam contents in this app. There are scammers pretending local guides posting spam contents to cheat money. No matter how many times I report them, these “local guides” are still not removed. Also, there are lots of spam and misleading places that hinder me to explore the places in Google Maps. Google Maps edit system is piece of garbage. When I edit the places reasonably, it often rejects my edits with no reason or explanation. I don’t understand why Google Maps use Automatic Verify System that are so unreliable that causes misinformation inside the app.

When you set a route, that plans out our directions and ETA, the switch away from the app for more than a few minutes, the app resets so the planes route and destination are gone!
This is very frustrating when you’re on a train since you no longer have your route or eta. You have to tap in your point of departure, time you left and destination all over again. This can be impossible if you’re in an unfamiliar city, or don’t record the time you left.
Why this app does this makes it VERY frustrating, and could even cause you to miss your destination. This can be downright dangerous if your in a compromised situation.
Also, the satellite view is often, if not always photographed from angle, which hides roads and features you need to navigate behind buildings.
