GPS always on after iOS 7.1 update

I updated my iPhone 4S to iOS 7.1 today. Everything seems to be ok except my GPS is always on. The GPS arrow won't go away from the top right. I've closed all applications and restarted my phone but the arrow remains. Anyone else experiencing this or have a solution?

I had the problem of Facebook always using location services even while the application was closed. I fixed this by going into the setting within the Facebook app, then opening the location settings and turning off location history. After that Facebook's utilization of iOS location services was back to only running while I had the app open. Hope this is helpful. There may be other settings within other applications mentioned in this thread that have internal settings that could resolve this issue for those apps as well.
