Turning location services on or off

In order to find your location on HTC Desire 530, you need to enable location sources.
  1. From the Home screen, tap > Settings > Location.
  2. Tap the On/Off switch to turn location services on and off.
  3. Under Location sources, select the location mode you want. For example, for a better estimate of your location, choose High accuracy. To save battery power, choose Battery saving.

Turning off a location source (for example GPS) means no applications on HTC Desire 530 will collect your location data through that location source. However, third party applications may collect — and HTC Desire 530 may continue to provide — location data through other sources, including through Wi‍-Fi and signal triangulation.
