Location & security settings
Use the Location & Security settings to configure how you want the tablet to
determine your location (this affects accuracy) and how you want to share your
location with Google and others. You can also configure settings that help secure
your tablet and its data.
Use wireless networks Check to use information from Wi-Fi and mobile
networks to determine your approximate location, for use in Maps and other

with Google’s location service, to help improve the service.
Use GPS satellites Check to use your tablet’s global positioning system (GPS)
satellite receiver to pinpoint your location to within an accuracy as close as several
