Not sure if anyone else experiences this, but figured I would put it out in the air. 

I have a Galaxy S24 Ultra, and I use Samsung Internet instead of Chrome so I can use the Samsung AI features. When I'm Google searching through Samsung Internet for places to grab food for example, it always shows my approximate location by my zip code. There is a toggle on the page that says precise location, but when I try to set the precise location by allowing the app to see my location at all times, that toggle is not there for me. So I can't allow Samsung Internet to use my location at all times. How do you fix this? I really don't want to go back to using Chrome.

The settings are as expected. You are using the app when doing the search, so it is using a precise location. The Google service may take that and just use the zip code.

IMO, a much better way to search for restaurants near you is to use the Google Maps app. In the search bar, type in restaurants near me.

FWIW I do that myself with Google maps. It's working reliably.
