If in these last few days you have found the notification more than once on your mobile phone “Your location is being used by Google plus services”and the picture icon above these lines in the status bar, You will be glad to know that you are not alone. Apparently, the latest version of the Google plus aplicación for Android causes the launcher of Android devices to always ask for the exact location of users for currently unknown reasons.
Various Reddit users They claim that they have been suffering from this “bug” lately, and in Android Police You have already spoken about it.
Everything espectáculos that it is something It affects all types of devices equally, regardless of brand or manufacturer.. I’ve been getting this notification myself for the past few days on a Google plus Pixel 2 XL and a OnePlus 6T, both running Android 9.0 Pie. However, it only seems to happen when using launchers like Pixel Launcher, Nova, Rootless Pixel Launcher and the one included in Android One devices. This suggests This may be an isolated case affecting only launchers based on the AOSP Launcher3 package.
On continuous announcement, The bug doesn’t seem to genere any other problems, although some users report that they have experienced increased battery drain in recent days. It is not known if this is the case, although it seems unlikely.
Everyone who thought about it Revert to the previous version of the Google plus aplicación to fix the issue, I am afraid that they will have to come up with another solution since the “bug” affects the latest version –8.44.2.21– and the previous version –8.39.6.21–. So we have to wait for Google plus to find the ocasione of the problem and fix it with a new update.
