GPS Arrow Location services is always on after update to ios 7.1. I close all apps and still there.
iPhone 5s, iOS 7.1
Same issue after update and was finally resolved by going to
Settings>Reset>Reset Location and Privacy Settings.
For all apps that I use have not had issue again. To check restarted Google Maps and allowed location and then put app into background and location services stopped after a number of seconds. Not sure if there are other apps out there that may need updating with new iOS release.
I reset my location services and it seems like some apps are just using GPS in the background constantly, even when I have completely closed the app. I will try reinstalling the culprit apps this evening and see what happens. If I **** off Background Refresh on the affected apps, it does resolve the issue as well.
This solved the issue for me too. Thanks.
I now am able can to start an app that uses location information and as soon as I force close it the arrow will disappear again just like before on my iPhone
All else failed. This worked for me! Thanks.
My problem was with Passbook. After I reset the location settings, Passbook asked to turn location settings on.
I found the culprit to be Reminders. Closed all apps, went back to Location Services in settings and found that to be the only app with a LS arrow still high lighted. If I toggle that setting the LS arrow comes and goes.
I found it was Siri and Pogoplug.
Resolved by removing location service from Cineplex app
for me, turning off the foursquare gps location access doesn't solve.
Is it necessary to wait a longer time to the gps icon goes off? I tried to turn off individually all gps access to the apps but nothing chamges on the gps icon.
apparently I had solved over here.
even with all apps closed, the gps location icon was on and even turning off the gps location access to several apps, including foursquare, life360º..., the problem continues.
I solved turning off the background update to foursquare. The dificulty to find this is on the concept that the app is not updating if is closed. Was needed close it and turn off the background update for it.
sorry for my english.
This worked for me as well. Thanks!
Additonal comment: After a locations and privacy reset you may need to turn off device and turn it back (not a soft reset) on to clear any residual settings in the iOS. In a least a couple of cases that I had to deal with this was the case.
Sorry but the only workaround that works for Moves in a 5S is to turn off the background feature in Settings. Even if I kill the app the navigation icon still showing up in the status bar. These seems to be a problem with the App that needs an update for 7.1.
Foursquare, Google and Dropbox all have this issue. More to discover 🙂
for me it was anything that had geofence type locations. once i turned those off it went away. I am wondering if there is a bug with 7.1 that thinks geofence means its on all the time. im going to try the reset then turn them back on and see if it fixes the issue
