Q: Does an app use data when it is tracking your location?
I like knowing what the weather is going to be doing where I'm at. The Weather Channel app I have noticed is constantly tracking my location, even when the app is not opened. I see the little aarow up next to my battery percentage and I know it's that app because as soon as I delete the app or change the settings, it disappears. Is this using data?
iPhone 6, iOS 8.3

It may - Location Services gets data from WiFi, cellular data, GPS, based on the app and the how information is available at the time: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201357
