Android: Google Maps location with low battery usage
My app is currently using Maps by Google Play Services speficying: mMap.setMyLocationEnabled(true); I realize each time I am displaying the map in my app: the location is indicated on the map by a blue dot a location icon is displaying in the top bar if I go into Settings/Location of the phone, my app is reported as "High battery use" However, I can see there are apps that use Maps and still show the location blue dot, but the location icon doesn't appear in top bar and their battery usage is low. My app currently grants both permissions: android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION android
