- Aardwolf 13y agoSo you mean you don't use GPS in Google Maps on your phone? Showing where you are in some city or other location is the best feature of it, what use does it even have without your location? A flashlight app needing to read your contacts is obviously ridiculous, but a map needing your location is rather handy.
