Security and Privacy

Enable or Disable Location Services

After obtaining the location information permission, apps can obtain your location at any time. If your
location information is obtained by a malicious app, you may be at risk of harm or fraud. You can
enable or disable location services as needed and regularly monitor and manage the allowed
permissions for your apps to protect your privacy and security.
Enable or disable location services: Open
access, and enable or disable Access my location. When location services are disabled, aside for
pre-installed software (such as Find my Phone), your Phone will stop all apps and services from
collecting and using your location information. The system will ask you to enable location services
when you attempt to use these apps.
Features may vary depending on your network provider.
l
Huawei only uses location data to provide you with necessary functions and services, not for
l
the purpose of identifying and collecting your private information.
Set indoor positioning assistance: Open
access > Advanced settings, and enable or disable Wi-Fi and Bluetooth scanning. Scanning Wi-Fi
networks and Bluetooth devices will improve the accuracy of indoor positioning.
