Google announced a new feature “Account Activity” in your Google Account which will give you more insight.
If you sign up, each month they will send you a link to a password-protected report with insights into your signed-in use of Google services.
With Account Activity Reports you can learn what’s going on in your account, e.g. how many emails you have sent and received, how often you have searched on Google, from which countries you have logged in and how often your YouTube videos have been viewed.
“Knowing more about your own account activity also can help you take steps to protect your Google Account. For example, if you notice sign-ins from countries where you haven’t been or devices you’ve never owned, you can change your password immediately and sign up for the extra level of security provided by 2-step verification”,Google says in it’s blog post.
Google’s Account Activity image posted on the Google blog shows the user’s Sign-in locations(Germany,UK),Browsers(Chrome,Android browser)and the platforms from which he accessed his account (Android, Mac, and Chrome OS).
It also listed how many mails we have sent and received,what’s the most contacted email id.
Those who want to sign up can do via the Account Activity website.
The new service is more like an extension to Google’s dashboard, then, which already gives users an overview of all their Google accounts and services in use – it just puts more data behind them.
