Same, also on Android. I have maybe half a dozen apps installed that did not come with my phone. Most of the apps that did come with my phone I have removed or disabled.

I also keep location turned off unless I am actively navigating in Google Maps. I know that doesn't eliminate all tracking but it's an easy thing to do.

Have you tried any of the alternatives to Google Maps, such as OsmAnd+ or Organic Maps?
