How many Android apps you’ve ever installed

Among the things, Google knows about you is the number of apps you’ve ever installed on your phones over the years. Up to a point, trying out new apps is an excellent method to maintain the freshness of your mobile gadget.

Go to Google’s account dashboard and look for the “Play Store” banner to see whether you’ve gone too far in your adventurousness.

All the YouTube videos you’ve watched this month

This may sound unusual to you, but among other things, Google knows about you is also how many YouTube videos you’ve watched during a month. “Say, what?”

Well, at work or home, we’ve all been there, you click on a video then you see another one, then you discover what’s in the related section, and so on. You end up browsing so many videos on YouTube you lose the number.

Well, of course, papa Google already knows this! And you can check out by yourself how many videos you’ve seen just for your curiosity by visiting Google’s account dashboard. You won’t believe how many hours we spend on the Internet!!

Bottom line: Does Google share my information?

Indeed, Google shares the data it gathers with its partner companies. However, this isn’t because they can spy on you! To enhance your experience with services like Google Maps, for example, Google shares your location with third parties.

  1. Don’t have anything to hide so hopefully it is ok. But then again there are somethings about my health that I thought was private or searches for that matter. So never really thought about it before. Don’t know what to think now. Might be ok and again can be scary.

  2. Well–unfortunately almost anything can get hacked or scammed, etc. I don’t have anything to hide–so no big deal here. It’s like–okay—I watched a YouTube video about caring for certain plants, I Google searched the weather forecast, I went to the grocery store to pick up a few items— not really anything interesting if Google tracks me at all.

  3. Of coarse it’s not safe, 1/19/2022 I got hacked, went through my 2FA like it wasn’t there, cleaned out my bank accounts, and stole my Social media accounts, in one week I lost Instagram, LinkedIn, Twitter, and Facebook, guess who I trusted with storing the logins so I wouldn’t have to dig out the big paßwords every time

  4. Google knows our passwords they can go in our accounts. They put our picture where they want wirhout our permission. I dont trust nothing on the internet or google. You know they are being sued
