Turning location services on or off

In order to find your location on HTC One, you need to enable location sources.

• Go to Settings, and then tap Location.
• Tap the On/Off switch to turn location services on and off.
• Under Location sources, select the location mode you want. For example, for a better estimate of your location, choose High accuracy. To save battery power, choose Battery saving.

Turning off a location source (for example GPS) means no applications on HTC One will collect your location data through that location source. However, third party applications may collect and HTC One may continue to provide location data through other sources, including through Wi-Fi and signal triangulation.
