Learn how to see which apps are using precise location on your iPhone

When using an iPhone, many apps will request precise location tracking permissions when you first open them. However, as the time of use increases and there are more and more applications in the device, it is easy to forget how many applications have been authorized or which applications have been authorized.

When you first open an app and the location tracking dialog box appears, you may see options asking whether to allow location use, including "Allow once," "Use app program allows" and "does not allow". What's easily overlooked is the "Precision: On" button in the upper left corner. In fact, this button gives you the option to enable or disable the default settings for precise tracking.

For precise location, Apple’s official description is: “Allow apps to use your specific Location. When this setting is turned off, apps can only determine your approximate location."

For the above situation, you can take the time to check the app on your iPhone and turn off location permissions or not allow Its access precise location.

You can manage app permissions to access location in iPhone settings:

1. Open " Settings app.

2. Scroll down to find the application list.

#3. Click Apply and select "Location" to see if precise location tracking is enabled.

#4. Tap the toggle switch next to "Precise Location" and tap to turn it off.

Please note:

If precise location tracking is not enabled or the app is prohibited from accessing location, some functionality of the app may be affected. Also, if you restore from a backup, precise location tracking settings may be transferred to your new iPhone.

#When precision tracking is turned off, the app can still track your location, but the positioning accuracy will be reduced. If you want to completely turn off tracking for an app, select Never.

If you want to completely turn off the location tracking function of all applications, you need to turn off the main location services switch (go to iPhone Settings-Privacy & Security-Location Services to turn off).
