Privacy
Location sharing
In Turkish: Konum paylaşımı
Letting an app, a person or a post reveal where you are, either live or as a place tag on what you share.
Location is useful for maps and delivery, but it also shows where you live, work and spend your time. Some apps keep a history, and some sell or share it. Live location shared with a wide group or left on by accident can be misused.
Phones let you choose "only while using the app" or turn location off per app. Exact menu names vary by phone, but the setting is usually under privacy or location.
What to do
- Set location to "only while using" for apps that need it and "never" for the rest.
- Stop live location shares you no longer need.
- Remove place tags from posts about your home or your child's school.
