  Thanks for the feedback. 2MB seems quite reasonable to store on one's
phone.

  To be sure, you mean *location* history, not "maps history", don't

  I say that, because I have Location History turned on, but hardly ever
use the Google Maps app. So my *location* is tracked/kept /most of the
time, but my use of the Google Maps *app* is minimal.
