Facebook explains its use of location data in iOS 13 and Android 10

Apple is all set to release its next version of operating system, iOS 13, to the public later this month. Ahead of the release, Facebook has posted a new blog post explaining how iOS 13 and even Android 10 will affect its access to your location data. The company has also explained how you will be able to view and manage your location. Here’s everything you need to know.

The social media giant says that the Android 10 will give more visibility into and control over when apps can access their device’s precise location. The iOS 13, on the other hand, will notify users about which apps can access their location information when they’re not using an app. One will also be able to check how many times each app has accessed the location information.

If you decide to update to Android 10, you’ll have the option to allow individual apps to access your precise location, either while you’re using the app or when you’re not.
