Question about background updating

[vmachiel]

Hi Forum,

iOS 7 allows for background updating. But in the settings you can see that some apps can also use your location when updating in the background. Let's say I allow an app to update in the background, but I disabled it's location under privacy: the location icon is still there in the back ground settings.

Does that mean the app can or cannot use location services when updating in the background?

Thank you!

if the location services is turned off, it wont get location data. but if the background update is still on, i believe thats strictly for data.
