iPhone users - tracking

[Enorriton]

For you savy smartphone users you may know this but found this tidbit interesting. Check for yourself to see what yours says. See if any of your favorite spots show up.

Go into "settings," then "privacy," then "location services," then "system services," and finally, "significant locations." You will find locations that are frequently visited.

I frequently have location services turned off. But I have significant locations turned off even when I have location services enabled.

Thanks for the tip. I looked at mine for the first time and the results had me roflol.
The gps locations stored are a complete mess. It had me down at certain spots I had never been to.
My hunch: I used to be a big PokémonGo user. Players would always bitch about physically playing in NYC, cause all the high-rise buildings constantly throw off your gps locater to like, 50-100 feet away from your intended location.
I do have an older gen phone, so maybe that was the issue. Not too sure about these newer phones...

LMAO. Mine shows every single place I’ve been from LA to NYC. Just had a lovely trip down memory lane.

If you married and wife gets the itching for greener pastures, her lawyer will be happy to take that trip too! TURN IT OFF!!!

Not an issue for me. My ex cost me 60-90k a year extra. I saved money with a divorce.
