- jeffbee 6y agoYes, but iOS does not proactively beg you to disable location access for Apple Maps, the way it does for Google Maps even if you've been using Google Maps daily since 2007.
- zepto 6y agoActually it does, and always has. When you set up iOS there is a full screen permission request to allow location data for Apple’s apps.
- thelopa 6y agoIf you set Google Maps to While Using the App you will stop seeing the prompts you’re thinking of. Those “downgrade” prompts only apply to apps with Always. Apple Maps doesn’t support Always and so it cannot get a downgrade prompt.
- jeffbee 6y agoThis is only because Apple draws a boundary around their stuff that says "Maps" only uses location when it's running, but "Significant Locations" and "Routing & Traffic" and "Improve Maps" are system services.
