Google logs all apps you use on Android. Start time, how many times was used, device, OS etc.

You may disable history but that don't mean they will stop logging.

See the history at https://myactivity.google.com/myactivity

Edit: get out of Google now!

What about LineageOS and no gapps?

MyActivity shows all play store apps and some non-store, pre-installed apps for me, e.g. the system launcher and WiFi drivers, but it does not show sideloaded apks.

If this story turns out to be what it seems, that might mean Google shows you only a subset of the app activity log that they actually keep, adding another layer of intransparency to the injustice.

I think if you are an EU citizen, you can use GDPR to find out.
