How to delete Google Maps search history

Everytime I hit search in Google Maps, a long list of previous searches appears.
Anyone know how to prevent this?
I've checked settings and couldn't find anything.
Not only to prevent it but couldn't delete any search entry's.

Does deleting maps app data from settings>apps do it?

I'd like to know this as well. I don't even know where its pulling it from, I'm seeing things I don't think I've ever searched for (but maybe I have).
I've tried clearing cache and clearing search history...no go...
edit: Okay, so I cleared web search history by going to maps.google.com on a desktop and clearing that history and turning off Web Search History permanently.
However, it still pops up a number of searches, which turns out are Personalized recommendations (creepy). And unfortunately, it doesn't appear there is any way to turn that off on the phone (you can turn it off on the browser by adding &pws=0 to the query string parameters).

I've had a few customers come in before on other droids asking how to do this. Going into manage apps and clearing data for maps or navigation usually did it

That's still an inconvenient way. There should be an option to disable that

I am wondering how to overcome this too.

Google Now Problems.

Does anyone else find that Google Now does not always engage when you say "Google" to activate it?
For me it only responds about once or twice. It works again after a reboot for another once or twice.
Anyone have a fix foe that?

It does this to me sometimes too I just give my phone a reboot and it works again, Hopefully it will get better once the source is released.

For me it keeps FCing. I've tried reinstalling it without luck. Has anyone been having this problem running AOKP build 40?

I have not seen this happen on my gnex. So far Google now has been spot on. It has been a little laggy at times, but no FCs or unresponsive.
Would there be any benefit in reflashing JB. Did something go wrong in the install?

Google Now Voice search
My Google Now doesn't have any working voice-back. When I do a voice search, it only shows a google search result.

Google Voice Search will not speak back with every search results. It will with some searches and request such as weather, definitions, directions, celebrity profile, etc. If you have attempted those and still have no voice response, you may need to download the offline speech recognition.
Go to Settings > Language & input > Speech > Voice Search > Download offline speech recognition. Select the language of your choice and enjoy.
Hope this helps!

I'm having the same problem. I tried downloading the offline speech recognition but it didn't help.
All that google now does for me is display the google search results, but it never provides me with any additional feedback even with the simplest searches, like: "is it going to rain tomorrow" or "who is the ceo of google?".
Anyone has any idea what might be the problem?

Can it be related to, that I'm running Yakjuxw, and not Yakju?
Today, Google Search was updated, bringing additional cards to Google Now. My voice searches are the same, though.
Problem persists.

Google now not showing up weather card

This has been happening to my phone for the last 3 days. When I press on microphone on Google search and say weather, a card pops up with the current temperature and forcast for next few days with a voice announcing the location and temperature . Now when I do the same Google presents me with a browser link showing max and min temp. I have enabled Google now, location access, disabled and enabled Google now, but it doesn't show up.
Anyone experiencing this problem? Any fix to it.
Clearing cache and data from application settings and uninstalling updates helps. Installing the latest version of Google search bring back the problem.

Google search is Google now, I'm not sure why you are making a distinction, unless you are using google search from the browser which you shouldn't. When I type weather into Google Now it shows me my current location weather. When I say Weather it shows me the same thing and announces it with voice.
PS> Seems you are using the old voice search app. Remove it and just use the Google app.

I'm using adw launcher and adw launcher comes with a Google bar by default in every screen which is quite useful. That is the one I'm using. That brings up the latest Google voice. Kinda sucks it's not working anymore. I will not be updating the latest Google search. And there's no talk back either.
PS. I know Google search is Google now now. And I'm not using the search bar.

[Q] Not receiving notifications when the phone is asleep.

Is anyone else having this issue? The device fails to receive notifications from Gmail, Twitter, Snapchat, etc. until I turn on the screen and unlock the phone. I'm currently connected to Wifi. There's a lot of crap apps that I disabled, so maybe that could be the culprit? Perhaps I disabled a necessary one on accident? Maybe there's a bloatware app that's disabling my Wifi? I haven't changed any Wifi settings and I don't see any noticeable culprit in the settings menu. Either way, here's the list of my disabled apps.

When you say not receiving, is it not notifying you until you wake it up, or is the notification icon there, it just doesn't play a sound?

It's legitimately not receiving any notifications after until I wake it up.

I give up.
I've tried everything at this point. I reset the phone twice. I monitored it on both Wifi and Cellular data. I monitored as many stock apps as I could. Something is stopping the damn phone from receiving data while it's asleep and I have no clue what the hell it is. I've scoured the settings menu countless times as well. Seeing how there's no replies, I'm just assuming that I'm the only person with this issue. I might have to just exchange the phone because I'm starting to believe that it's a hardware problem. Doesn't seem like it really, but damn this is annoying.

Have the same problem. Chatted with 2 people at Samsung, both useless.
The first person told me that "you will receive only notifications for text messages and call logs on the lock screen". I told her there should be a tiny icon near carrier name...
The 2nd person suggested I contact AT&T.
Like to know if anyone has more info regarding this issue.

possible solution
I have experienced same issue particularly with hangouts for me. From the brief searching I did about this I found it seems a common issue with Android lately and also saw an app suggested called pnf--push notification fixer. I have tried it and seems to do the trick. Something you may find helpful. Root and non root versions in play store.

Google was down this morning. Hangouts, and gmail wetter effected. It should be back up and working now. You may have also experienced they Google Play Services crashing.

Google Feed/At A Glance widget not working

I noticed today that my Google Feed isn't updating. If I swipe left on my home screen I see my feed with cards but they are the same ones that been there for a long time. If I pull down to update I get a "Can't reach your feed at the moment" message and no cards show. If I lock the phone and unlock it I get the old out of date cards back but still nothing new.
I have also noticed that the weather isn't showing in the "At A Glance" widget on the home screen.
Anyone else seeing this? Any ideas on how to fix? I have restarted and cleared the cache of the Google app and neither have worked. The only other thing I can think of is going to Apps > Google > Storage > Manage Space > Clear All Data but clears search data, search history and feed settings which are used to populate the feed with relevant data. It would have to be set up again(sports teams, stocks, etc) and have rebuild search data which takes time. If that will fix the issue I'll do it but I'd hate to have it not fix the issue and have to start over for no reason.

Same issue here all day on my P2XL and on my wife's Pixel XL.
I found that If I disable the weather updates, my feed starts working again. So it looks like it has to do with the news and weather app. I tried to uninstall/reinstall it, didn't help.

I'm having the same issue. Interestingly though, if you uninstall the updates for the Google app, it works just fine.

Same issue with me too. Tried everything yet ain't working. Running 8.1 in pixel 2 xl

Seems like it's something related to weather updates from within google app, turns out if you disable it from "customize feed" your cards will be back to normal at the loss of weather info on the app and launcher. Glad I'm not alone tho

Yeah glad that I'm not alone too. Let's see what happens.

I was also having this issue but it started working fine 5-10 min ago.

I ran into this exact issue with my regular pixel 2 about 1 hour ago. When i connected to my wifi i got a system notification saying my streaming service stopped for google (was confused what that meant) but after that my feed did not work. Weather was not showing up in the "at a glance" app as well. I tried to uninstall google app updates, deleted all data google app data, removed my google account and then re added it, and did multiple reboots while on mobile data and wifi. All efforts was not successful. I also was getting the error message "we cannot reach your feed right now" on the google app while the updates were uninstalled.

Having the same issue. Can't reach the feed since yesterday!

Same here, on Pixel 2XL for me and Pixel 2 for two of my friends. Weather doesn't show up in At A Glance widget, disabling it in the feed does nothing to the feed, and the phone doesn't react to "Hey Google", but only "Ok Google" despite retraining the voice model. There's a Reddit thread going on this https://www.reddit.com/r/GooglePixe...able_right_now_cant_reach_your_feed/?sort=new and I also spoke to Google Support at length, they've escalated this to their engineering team, since they have lots of reports of this today. They are asking everyone to send feedback from the Google Now app/feed with the screenshot -- that way they can determine the scope of who's affected

Uninstalled the updates and restarted... Now it works fine.

Yes, I noticed the same thing. Uninstalled the latest version and went back to the factory version and it works. Although, I did notice all the cards were very old items ( 7+ hours old) but I'm not sure if that's just because there really is nothing recent.

Of everyone who is having this issue how many are in the western United States (New Mexico, Nevada, Arizona)?

Hi all,
I have started experiencing the similar issue from today. Def has something to do with Google App update as in "What's New" section it does refer to changes to feed notification etc.
Things I have tried since I first started noticing the issue:
1. Phone restart.
2. Shut down phone, wait and restart
3. Clear data of Google App along side disabled/enabled app. (Ended up losing Google assistant setup and had to redo it)
4. Uninstalled Google App updates and restarted.
Only thing that has worked is that I have selected weather from feed settings and feed is back.
I have also sent feedback to Google with screenshots.
Cheers.

Let's see how'll Google solve this.

Same here. Moto x play

Oops...they did it again...Google has mastered the art of breaking what's working very well! They keep updating apps that only break many other dependent apps...I'm on the Pixel XL and it's feed seem to work when I remove the weather feed from it...looks like google messed up the weather service...

Back in business...

Is it fixed yet or still onn with the bug

9:45 PST and it's still not fixed. I believe there is a wide spread problem with Google and also PlayStation Network.
PSN has been wonky since Friday and Google in my area has been wonky since Saturday.
