Scary!
iPhone users will be freaked out to know that their most treasured piece of technology has been stalking you & noting down all your favourite places.
Your iPhone will keep track of places you have recently been, as well as how often and when you visited them, in order to learn places that are significant to you.This data is encrypted and stored only on your device and will not be shared without your consent. It is used to provide you with personalized services, such as predictive traffic routing, and to build better Photos Memories.
The log of everywhere you've ever been is in such detail that you can even see house numbers, when the location was first recorded and how long you spent there.
The feature uses everything from GPS and Bluetooth to wifi and cell tower locations to track where you've been.
If you've never heard about this feature before, it might be because it's very well-hidden.
Here's how to find it;
1. Open Settings
2. Tap on the Privacy button
3. Click on Location Services
4. Scroll to the bottom of the page
5. Tap on System Services
6. Go to the Significant Locations tab
7. Log in with Face ID, Touch ID or your passcode
Luckily you're able to opt out of this feature. You can turn off frequent locations and clear your history.
