   I just noticed I didn't have a 1-tap homescreen shortcut to roaming.   
   So I made one and put that one-tap shortcut into my shortcuts folder.

   The problem isn't you leaving it on - it's Google's Android turning it off.   
       
      
   Hence you need to have a set of shortcuts to keep Google's location honest.
