Google Photos introduces Location History-based travel 'Timeline'

Google has previously announced its plans to bring the Location History-based Timeline feature from Maps to Photos. Now, the photo service gets Timeline on Android and iOS alongside the ability to change the map layer. When you head to the Search tab in Google Photos, you can see the "Your map" option under Places. It will show you where the photos were taken as well as the exact route travelled. Google noted that this trail would only be visible to you. And if you zoom in to a particular area, it will show all the photos you've taken there over time. 

If you don't want access to this feature, you can disable it in the new overflow menu that takes you to your Google Account settings. The default map layer can also show Satellite or Terrain options.
