Fine-tune your Location setting


Without any tweaking or modding, Android 4.4 provides some really interesting ways to monitor access to your location data. In the new Location menu of the main system settings, you can do more than simply turn GPS on and off. This is definitely a menu you should get familiar with.

Fine-tuning location services can help save battery life.
There is, of course, a big toggle at the top of the screen to disable all location services, but you can also set location to battery saving location mode. If you do this, your phone or tablet will only provide location data from Wi-Fi and cellular network locations—no GPS will be used. This makes for less accurate mapping and such, but saves battery life.

The Location menu also shows you the last few location requests made from the device, which is nice for your peace of mind—or maybe not depending on your paranoia levels.
