I really need to stop the location accuracy notification iphone dialog.

When I turn on the iphone Camera to capture a shot, suddenly I am interrupted

by this annoying dialog and I miss the shot!


Why does the iPhone insist on ruining my experience?

It was me who turned off my Wi-Fi and I know why I did it at the moment.

What perverse reason does Apple have for questioning my choices?

iPhone 4S, iOS 7.0.1

That's nonsense. Scanning for WiFi most certainly uses battery, do you think its magic that it knows to connect to your known networks? Besides, poor WiFi reception also drains the battery faster compared to mobile signal if that's of proper quality.


Its true that WiFi uses less battery when there's a good signal, certainly saves battery. But keeping WiFi on whilst you're not in range of your network is a pure waste of battery and absolutely causes a drain. Which makes total sense by the way...
