Right in the title: “with encrypted cloud Backups”
Missed that somehow
Then be a good steward of your own data and transfer it to your new phone.
I’ve always had location history disabled. I plan to keep it disabled.

He probably means disabling that feature in the options doesn’t actually disable the tracking
@ijeff who cares if it will still be using this data for advertising…
@petrescatraian it does? @ijeff

For now, there are plenty of self-tracking apps if you’re into this. I personally use Transistor when I am going on hikes or various trips. It’s great if you want to have a journal of places with gpx tracks.
