What is this symbol? (arrow next to the "Battery Indicator"

Ok, a little arrow pops up next to my battery percentage indicator (extreme top right corner) sometimes it's there (to the left of the indicator), sometimes not. Sometimes it points directly at the power indicator (points to the right), sometimes it points to the right at about a 15 degree upward angle?!?!

What is this thing!!!!????

This tells you that an app, either on screen or running in the background is finding and/or using your location.
You can change what apps can use location data in Settings.

Hope this solves your problem.

I also had same problem after updating to iOS 11 , I got rid of it by turning off blue tooth . This symbol comes on when blue tooth is turned on .
