Apps showing location when I don’t even have them.

My iPhone has recently had a glitch, where in the control centre it shows apps using my location. One of the apps showing, I don’t even have. I reset my phone and it disappeared but how can I stop this repeating itself?

iPhone 12 Pro, iOS 16

Hello titojejso,


Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities. We see you have some questions about some apps on your device, you don't have, showing up. Were these ones you ever downloaded before? If so, did you hide the apps, instead of deleting them?


When you go to the App Store, and search for the app, does it show download, or "Get".


Let us know, and we'll get the best options from there.


Regards.
