NGL, that would be such a cool setting to be able to toggle on

Definitely a fun thing to have on but really reduces map usability. I can see this for one of those map games like pokemon GO or Ingress.

Damn right I'd have that enabled all the time... Just need to revisit all the places I've been all over again. Roadtrip!

@TheBrickyard

I don’t see why they can’t use the already existing historical data they have on you.

It's not fog of war, but if you go to the timeline and have location history enabled, you can see a map of all the places you've been. So if you're looking for new places to try out that's a good way to start.

I contributed to OpenStreetMap when it was totally blank in my area and I was the only contributor. I used to let a GPS datalogger running and map every single trip. That was kind of like this. It was really addictive.

Would be kinda fun if you could switch between views

That would be awesome.

Actually seems like a cool idea for an app to explore new areas of the city or whatnot.
