Do I Need to Have Wi-Fi Turned On?
Yes, we highly recommend keeping Wi-Fi enabled. This allows your phone to use nearby Wi-Fi hotspots to improve location accuracy—even if you're not connected to a specific network. In urban areas, your device may pass thousands of hotspots daily, which helps register more precise location data.
Wi-Fi is also more battery-efficient compared to other location sources like GPS.
To enable Wi-Fi:
Go to Settings > Wi-Fi > Turn On.
