"Used Telephone"

[Singhraj]

There is one Google activity named
"USED TELEPHONE" is showing now a days on my Moto g3 phone and next day this activity disappeared from Google activity means if it is 29th april today then "used Telephone" will show but when I check my google activity on 30th April for the 29th April then this activity. "Used Telephone " won't show. why this is happening and for what this activity "used telephone" is showing?

 

[Singhraj]

And what is the difference between "used phone" and "used telephone" ?
In my friend's phone it shows "used phone" but in my case it shows "used telephone" why it is so?

No there are some phone activities which Google keeps record
Go to chrome search for setting and click on Sync afterwards click on activity controls

i yeah i think that is why........because they are different phones........why? i have no idea.

you can google chat with their support team and ask them. all things google, they have a live chat where they can answer questions or troubleshoot. google chat help

Or maybe it's a subtlety of a language preference that it calls it phone for one and telephone for another?

There's nothing like that in my activity, but I do have every history I can pause paused (though typical Google, telling it to pause web and app activity doesn't actually stop it logging what apps you use and when, though I believe it does stop them recording where. They really go out of their way to be misleading and track more than they say).

doesn't seem like it to me. if you can match you phone calls you are good.
