    Location data access indicator

    + +

    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.

    + +

    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.

    + +

    This will likely become a standard feature in Android 13 at which point it + will be removed from this page.
