Using location services
Location services allow applications such as Maps and the camera to use information
from mobile and Wi-Fi® networks as well as Global Positioning System (GPS)
information to determine your approximate location. If you're not within a clear line of
sight to GPS satellites, your device can determine your location using the Wi-Fi®
function. And if you're not within range of a Wi-Fi® network, your device can
determine your location using your mobile network.
In order to use your device to find out where you are, you need to enable location
services.
To enable location services
1
Drag the status bar downwards, then tap
.
2
Tap Location services.
3
Drag the slider beside Access to my location to the right.
4
Tap Agree twice to confirm.
When you enable location services, both GPS satellites and Google's location service (Wi-Fi
and mobile networks) get enabled by default. You can disable either option manually.
To allow Google apps to access your location
1
Drag the status bar downwards, then tap .
2
Tap Google > Location settings.
3
Drag the slider beside Let Google apps access your location to the right.
You must be logged into your Google™ account to be able to use location services.
Improving GPS accuracy
The first time you use the GPS function in your device, it can take 5 to 10 minutes for
your location to be found. To help the search, make sure you have a clear view of the
sky. Stand still and don't cover the GPS antenna (the highlighted area in the image).
GPS signals can pass through clouds and plastic, but not through most solid objects
such as buildings and mountains. If your location isn't found after a few minutes,
move to another location.
Google Maps™ and navigation
Use Google Maps™ to track your current location, view real-time traffic situations
and receive detailed directions to your destination.
When you view a map, you use data traffic to get an Internet connection, and data is
transferred to your device. So it's a good idea to save a map and make it available
offline before you take a trip. This way, you can avoid high roaming costs.
The Google Maps™ application requires the use of an Internet connection when used online.
You may incur data connection charges when you connect to the Internet from your device.
Contact your network operator for more information. The Google Maps™ application may not
be available in every market, country or region.
