      I’ve used my location history to remember names of places I went to over a year ago, addresses I was given and expected to write down but forgot, confirm for myself I actually went and did something that I couldn’t recall fully…

      It’s great for someone with a shite memory.

      If you have ever lost something and had to retrace your steps it helps but I guess it’s not super important or relatable for most people

      It’s nice to have a sort of diary sometimes. My only practical application has been to sometimes check which times I arrive to and leave from work when I need to report my hours.

      Looks like most of the existing replies captured my same use cases!

      There have also been a couple of times where my wife and I disagreed about what we did on X day and it’s kind of nice to see who is right 😂

      I think I also just like the raw data. I also keep spreadsheets of my utility bills over time, for example, because it’s weirdly fun to look back and see or compare.

      One thing I’d really love is a self-hosted all-day heart rate tracker, but have yet to stumble on such a thing.
