Popular near me uses location even when turned off

Hey lads,


i am having rather strange issue.

location services are always on but i have setup them so they minimize battery drain.

in that regard popular near me is off, but as the title says - it always shown purple arrow - meaning it recently used location.

anyone knows what thats about?


thanks

Hello r.sep,



Thanks for that info and for choosing the Apple Support Communities. If we understand correctly, you are seeing your location being used, and you're not expecting it. We can understand why you'd reach out for a resolution.


Here is a resource that can help.


Turn Location Services and GPS on or off on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch



Cheers!
