How to not share your location when taking photos—iPhone

(1/4) > >>

There seems to be a phobia about posting photos you take from your phone and sharing your location when you do.  I don’t know how to tell you to maneuver around it with other brands of phones but here’s what you do with an iPhone.
Go to Settings —>Privacy—>Location Services.
Here you can turn it off completely or you can customize it so it’s on for some apps and off for others. I use my phone for work and there are things I need to have it on for so mine are on, and then turned off for certain apps. Maybe someone can show how to do it with the Samsung or other brand name phones.

For my Samsung Anxriod. I go to settings app. Scroll down to Location turn off. Go to Privacy and turn all off. Haven't seen any Washington plates in Idaho where we hunt.  :chuckle:

But if the picture is already taken before you turn location off it would still have the meta data in it.  Not sure if copying a photo changes the data stored. I'm just not sure what photos had it on when I took them.

If you aren't sure, then screen shot them. 

It will say the location at the top of the picture, i.e. "Pasco, WA."
