   That's good information to know.   
   I have only seen, I think, map apps ask for location access at runtime (as   
   I recall).   
      
   But, overall, other than *map* apps and perhaps the "convenience" apps such   
   as weather and local news, is there anyone who sees a danger or problem   
   with simply turning off all apps' location access, and then, just turning   
   on the location access *when* and *if* it's actually needed by you?   
      
   What apps *need* location access?   
   - maps   
   - customized apps for your location (e.g., weather & news & prices)   
   - anything else?
