Location Turning On Automatically

[Keshavagarwal]

Samsung Location SDK is turning on location automatically for few seconds, and then turns it off. This happens every 5 minutes.

Is anyone else facing this issue ?

How to disable this ?

Maybe you have turned on location sharing feature in Google Map.
Tap and hold on location icon and check which app requesting to turn on location.

No apps accessing location. Just is system apps - Samsung Location SDK.

Because if your device lost
You not able to find it without frequent locating scans
