Usando servizos de localización

Location services in Ubuntu Touch allow apps to access your current location. Using this data, apps can offer turn-by-turn navigation, track your exercise paths, locate public transport near you, and more.

The location services built into Ubuntu Touch are designed to protect your privacy — you choose to permit or deny apps access to this data. Apps may only access your location data when the device screen is on and the app is in use.

Checking if location services are on

The Location Indicator is displayed whenever location services are on. Normally, this indicator will appear to be dark.

Permitindo que os aplicativos accedan aos datos de localización

Ubuntu Touch permítelle ou denegar o acceso dos aplicativos aos seus datos de localización. Esta decisión preséntase a primeira vez que o aplicativo intenta acceder á túa situación actual. Podes cambiar a túa decisión máis tarde.

Utilizando os aplicativos cos servizos de localización

Os aplicativos poderán acceder á túa situación actual despois de que lles concedan acceso aos datos de situación. Non obstante, hai algunhas cousas que hai que ter en conta ao usar aplicativos con servizos de localización.

Tempo para a primeira solución

A «fix» is a data point generated by GPS hardware that contains its current location and the expected accuracy of that location. GPS hardware is rated by how long it takes to return one of these data points after the device is activated. This rating is called «Time To First Fix,» or TTFF.

A device with a mobile data connection should take one to four minutes to receive its first fix. If location services have not been used for a long time and the device does not have a mobile data connection, the first fix can take up to an hour. To prevent this from causing problems for you, follow these instructions:

Advertencia

Do not leave your device in direct sunlight. (The heat can damage the device.)

1. Turn off Lock when idle in the Battery settings

2. Download an app which uses location services and use it to start accessing location data.

3. Leave your device near a window, but out of direct sunlight.

(Turn the screen brightness down to reduce energy consumption.)

After 20-60 minutes, your device should display your current location. You can now close the app and turn on Lock when idle. Future attempts to aquire your location should now take 1-4 minutes.

Suspensión do aplicativo

Apps are suspended whenever not in the foreground, or when the device is locked. When an app is suspended, it cannot receive location data. For this reason, apps will not be able to track your location whenever they are not in use or the device is locked.
