DiscussionsBuild: One UI 7 Beta 6
Issue: GPS icon remains stuck ON in the status bar continuously, and used by "System apps" even when no apps are actively using location. Appears caused by background system processes such as "System apps"
Impact: Noticeable battery drain. Persists after restart.
Workaround: Requires manually toggling Location OFF to disable the GPS icon. Issue returns when Location is re-enabled.

DiscussionsYou can also get to it when long pressing GPS on the Quick Panel.
Does not mean GPS is running all the time as the log will tell you the last time an app accessed GPS. Some you can turn off in app settings or make it so GPS runs when tla give app is open. Other apps you can't change.
You can manually toggle on/off GPS or use Bixby Routines to have greater control of your GPS usage.
It would really be great for the moderators to chime in with the community regarding this topic.
