Location history was both surprisingly good and surprisingly bad in the past, but the last few times I looked it was less impressive.
On the good side it used to be remarkably accurate at identifying and tracking stops along with routes I had driven. At the same time it would have occasional astonishing jumps such as the 15 minutes I once spent in South Korea during the middle of the day.
At some point they appeared to dumb it down pretty radically and it would no longer even recognize that I had been at a location even when I had been there for hours.
These days I use a separate unfortunately discontinued app for tracking location and uploading to my own cloud storage a few times a day.
I've given up on Google not being evil, but it might be nice if they could avoid being so freaking creepy.
