Big Brother is certainly watching.
Our bros over at JOE.ie have discovered something more than a touch terrifying this evening, after they revealed that there’s a feature on your iPhone which tracks your frequent locations, and records the dates and times you visit each of them.
Before you frantically search through your phone, don’t worry, as there’s a way to turn it off, and sure the lovely lads have only created a step-by-step guide to do exactly that for us all.
Simply head to the settings on your iPhone and select ‘Privacy’.
Next, click on ‘Location Services’, scroll down a bit until you find ‘System Services’, click that, and then click into ‘Frequent Locations’ and to turn it off, simply flick the slider to the ‘off’ position.
According to Tech Insider, Apple has stated that the information is stored only on your phone, and it’s used to run services like traffic routing.
