<p>GrapheneOS enables the privacy indicator for location data access in
addition to the standard Android camera and microphone indicators. This shows
an indicator when an app the user has granted permission to access location
requests location data. We also resolve various UX issues with this feature as
it currently exists in AOSP to get it into a highly usable state.</p>
<p>The indicator works the same way as the Camera and Microphone ones, showing
a bright green icon when location access occurs which then gets minimized to a
small bright green dot when the quick settings tray isn't currently opened.
Android 12 already includes Location with the other standard runtime
permissions in the privacy dashboard for viewing the history.</p>
<p>This will likely become a standard feature in Android 13 at which point it
will be removed from this page.</p>
