Eh, I find it kind of annoying, a notification for every restaurant, city, country, etc that I look up and have absolutely zero intention of traveling to. It has potential to be useful, but it needs to get smarter first.
Maybe I spend too much time searching Maps randomly.
- prawks 13y agoProbably. It would have to make a lot of assumptions to infer your intention when searching, at least in Maps, etc. current form. A browser plugin to enable/disable Now tracking seems like it could be handy, however. Though then if you forget to turn it back on you lose what eitally mentioned: "I forgot X, oh, thankfully Now caught it". But doesn't Google Maps have a history feature that syncs across devices? Now seems like it might be polluting that space.
