If you do not see that, tap on "Location History settings" instead. You should now get on the Activity controls page for your Google account. Here, you'll simply toggle off the "Location History" switch to prevent Google Maps from always tracking you.

Once you toggle it off, Google will explain how "pausing" Location History may create limitations or completely disable certain features when using Google Maps. It won't affect your location services for other Google services. When you're ready, tap on the  "Pause" button in bottom , and your Location History will then be disabled.
