Nowadays the use of the mobile phone is increasing, since the amount of functions we can do with it has increased considerably over time. We take our device wherever we go, and generally store a lot of personal and professional information..
Apart from the basic uses such as the telephone or messaging applications and social networks , one of the uses was fundamental is that of GPS. GPS can be very useful if we need to reach a certain place and do not know how to do it or to meet someone, for example.
However, its use is not always good news, since many applications do not request permission to access our location, and on many occasions we accept this without even realizing it. This can be dangerous since we would be giving this information to third-party applications. In addition, having the GPS location activated is a reason for the iPhone battery to burn faster..
That is why if you want to know how to disable GPS location on iPhone Xs or iPhone Xs Max, then we explain how to do it on the phone in general or in certain applications.
