Hi Andy,

You know phones better'n I do, and yet I'm no slouch either, where I have
on Android 13, a one-tap shortcut to the Precise Location Accuracy settings
so that I can turn that off whenever Google Maps turns that switch on.

What's different in Android 15?

If the only difference is that the first time you boot Android 15, Google
Location Accuracy is turned on, then what's the problem of turning it off?

Does it keep getting turned on in Android 15?
If so, what is the "event" that turns it on in Android 15?

In Android 13, the only "events" I know of are when routing (or network
debugging) tools ask to turn it on in order to use the app.

In those cases I turn it on for the duration that I need that app, where I
also add GPS spoofing prior to turning Google Location Accuracy on.

Unfortunately, I can't spoof wifi location, so it confuses the hell out of
an app who sees nearby wifi BSSIDs that it knows are nowhere near where my
GPS radio is spoofed to.
