Forget the name of the awesome bar or restaurant you went to a few weeks back? Now you can consult Google Maps to help jog your memory.

A handy new Maps feature called Your Timeline, announced Tuesday, lets you look back at the places you've been on a given day, month, or year.

"Your Timeline allows you to visualize your real-world routines, easily see the trips you've taken and get a glimpse of the places where you spend your time," Google Product Manager Gerard Sanz wrote in a blog post. If you use Google Photos, your Timeline will also show any images you took when viewing a specific day.

To quell any privacy fears about this new feature, Google promised that Your Timeline is "private and visible only to you." You can control the locations and choose which to keep, meaning you can easily delete a day or your full history at any time. You can also delete individual places that appear in Your Timeline, or give a frequented spot a private name, like "Mom's House."

Your Timeline is rolling out now, so if you don't see it right away just sit tight. The feature is available on the desktop and Android, but you can only access it if you've opted in to store your Location History with Google. Head over to My Account to access and manage your Location History, and all other Google privacy settings.

"We hope you find Your Timeline a valuable and helpful tool as you explore the world around you," Sanz wrote.

Meanwhile, Google also recently added a new Maps feature that lets you quickly beam directions from your desktop to your phone.
