Re: iOS 11 will stop apps like Uber from constantly tracking your location - CNET
A very long time if immigration levels do not change substantially. The driver was an Indian national and hungry for work but enjoys the freedom and tolerance found in the United States. The bigger issue is will these ride share companies ever create a profitable business model.

Re: iOS 11 will stop apps like Uber from constantly tracking your location - CNET
A recent update to the Uber app requires end users to give permission to Uber to track your location when the app is in the background. I refused to give my permission and was able to schedule a ride. Before I confirmed it though, I switched to Lyft and requested a ride from them. I am disgusted by Uber’s business practices and am thankful to have a choice. My ride was only $3.65 from downtown Chicago to my north side home. Normally it is about $12. Kelly Kelly On 6/9/17, M.

iOS 11 will stop apps like Uber from constantly tracking your location - CNET
iOS 11 will stop apps like Uber from constantly tracking your location - CNET When iOS 11 is available later this year, users will have the option to customize how each app uses his or her location - regardless of the options a developer provides. Prior to iOS 11, users could only use one of the location access options provided by developers. That meant, for an app like Uber, you were limited to two options. If a developer didn't want to include the option for use only while you are using the app, you were stuck with Never or Always. iOS 11 now offers both privacy options for any app requesting your location. Huge win over apps like Uber "needing" it all the time. pic.twitter.com/mZke8InSVD - Lance Somoza (@SyrinxStarman) June 6, 2017 As the above screenshot shows, iOS 11 users are finally given full control over when an app can access location data. Naturally, most users will only want that to be when he or she is, you know, actually using the app. To control each individual app, users will need to go to Settings > Privacy > Location Services to adjust individual app settings or as shown in the screenshot, iOS 11 will prompt users. As is always the case with Apple betas, the company sometimes removes or changes features before final release. We will update this post as the beta process progresses. Apple confirmed to CNET that this is indeed a feature of iOS 11. https://www.cnet.com/how-to/how-to-stop-apps-from-constantly-tracking-your-l ocation-in-ios-11/#ftag=CAD5457c2c -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
