Incognito mode comes to Google Maps for iOS
We are increasingly using Apple Maps to the detriment of Google Maps, but this does not mean that we have deleted the app Google from our devices. At certain times we use it since the maps of Apple, still have to improve to catch up with their direct competition.
Given the times we live in, where privacy is increasingly valued in all walks of life, Google has just stepped up and added the incognito mode in your app for devices iOSIt is something that has been enjoyed on Android since the beginning of the year and that we now also have available on our iPhone and iPad
After adding functions such as show speed cameras, the function in augmented reality Live View and send incidents in traffic, here comes this news that you will soon have available on your device.
How Google Maps incognito mode works for iOS:
When we activate the incognito mode, something optional and that is deactivated natively, we prevent the app from saving, in its records, the searches and journeys we make through the app.
By not being logged into user accounts, they will not be matched within personalized recommendations or any other personalization-based feature. This makes our use of Google Maps much more private.
At the time of writing, the feature was not yet activated on our devices. It is something that will be done little by little and should be available in the accounts of all users in the next few hours or days.
This is how to activate incognito mode on Google Maps:
As we have been able to see, to activate this function we must click on the image of our account, which appears in the upper right part of the screen and in the menu that appears, we will have the option of activate incognito browsing mode.

It will be that easy to make the use of the app and our searches, places we visit, routes more private. If you want more information about it, you can visit the Google blog where the news was released.
