# Using Location Services

You can enable apps to use location information using GPS satellites or wireless networks. That enables you to search your present location and routes to a destination.

## Enabling location information

1. Tap [ Apps & Widgets] - [ Settings] - [Location services].

1. To enable reception of location information via wireless communications, tap [Google’s location service].

To enable reception of location information via GPS satellites, tap [GPS satellites].
A check mark is put in the box for that setting.

## Disabling location information

1. Tap [ Apps & Widgets] - [ Settings] - [Location services].

1. Tap [Google’s location service] or [GPS satellites].

The check mark is removed from the box for that setting, and location information is disabled.
Hint

- The GPS (Global Positioning System) function provides location information by receiving signals from GPS satellites. You can see the location where you are with your tablet by using an app that supports the GPS function.

Note

- The GPS antenna is built in to your tablet. If you cover the antenna with your hands or other objects while using the GPS function, the positioning accuracy may deteriorate.
