OPPO smartphone's Location Services gives a real-time clock/time zone, updates on the weather conditions, geotagging on videos and images, and more! Get to know more about the Location Services feature on your OPPO smartphone by reading the simple guide we created below.

OPPO smartphones' Location Services

Turning on Location Services is very important to some apps so it will have real-time information as to where you are. These are some of the things you can do when your Location Service is enabled:

Real-time clock/time zone wherever you are in the world.
Update weather conditions wherever you are in the world.
Ride-service hailing (Grab, Uber, Lyft, Didi, Ola, and others)
Food Delivery Services
Geotagging videos and images

Note: Apps like Maps, Weather, and Compass must know your exact position before they can provide accurate services and results.

Turn on Location Service

Swipe down from the top of the screen to open Control Center, then tap the [Location] icon .
You can also go to [Settings] > [Google] > [Location] and toggle the slider to green.

For ColorOS 11 and above: Go to your OPPO smartphone's [Settings] > [Location] > Enable the location by toggling the switch to green.

You can choose from three types of positioning modes, which differ in accuracy and battery drain:

High accuracy (GPS, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and mobile network).
Battery saving (Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and mobile network).
The device only (GPS).

History of recent location requests

You'll see a list of apps that have requested locations. Tap an app to enter the App info page that allows you to manage the app directly.

For ColorOS 11 and above: Go to your OPPO smartphone's [Settings] > [Location] > Under the Recent Location Requests, you can manage the application that recently used your OPPO smartphone's location.

Positioning Control

Apps that use GPS in the background: This allows the app to use GPS in the background when enabled. Keeping the background GPS of the apps active may drain the battery significantly.
Scan: This allows you to scan Wi-Fi and Bluetooth to improve location accuracy.

Google Location service

To enable location services for Google, go to your OPPO smartphone's [Settings] > [App management] > [App list] > Then look for Google > [Permissions] > [Location] > Then tap on [Allow all the time].

Use Google Location History to retrace your steps. Google Location History will customize search results for location and search history.
