location based alerts usage since ios 8.2?

[Yun0]

on iphone 6 i have random (for a few seconds) usually once or twice every 24 hrs, usage of location based alerts under system services, this started in ios 8.2 b1 & persisted ever since with everything after. before nothing ever triggered it except location reminders which i never use, i had one reminder set later this year that was not location based, deleted it anyway so no reminders are active, still does it. reset settings, still does it. reflash ios & check before putting my backup back, still does it..

i dont care about the privacy panic etc, its more about battery life, which is exceptionally good since 8.3 b3, but id still like to know whats using it & why, NONE of my apps are triggering it

Do apps show up in the bottom left corner of the lock screen?

no, & that setting has been off since it was added

My mistake, it may not have anything to do with that.

From the iOS 8 support page on location services:

Location Based Alerts: Your iOS device will use your location to provide you with geographically relevant alerts, such as a reminder to call someone when you get to a specific place or when to leave for your next appointment based on where you currently are.

You mentioned no reminders, do you use the calendar app?

no, calendar is at default settings except to display week numbers
