Do you know Google keeps a record of all the activities you do using your Google Account? However, it also offers you the ability to manage the activities of your Google account. Thus, let’s go to a step by step guide to manage the activities of your Google account.

Here, you can use your Activity controls to choose what kind of activities are saved to your Google account. These settings apply on all the devices, which are signed in from your account.

You can change these settings and view or delete your saved activity at any time.
