Apps & Widgets] - [
2. To enable reception of location information via wireless communications, tap [Google's
location service].
To enable reception of location information via GPS satellites, tap [GPS satellites].
A check mark is put in the box for that setting.
Disabling location information
1. Tap [
Apps & Widgets] - [
2. Tap [Google's location service] or [GPS satellites].
The check mark is removed from the box for that setting, and location information is disabled.
Hint
The GPS (Global Positioning System) function provides location information by receiving
signals from GPS satellites. You can see the location where you are with your tablet device by
using an app that supports the GPS function.
Note
The GPS antenna is built in to your tablet device. If you cover the antenna with your hands or
other objects while using the GPS function, the positioning accuracy may deteriorate.
