I was noticing that the location icon was on in my Pixel's status bar all the time. So, to track this down, rebooted into safe mode, and the location icon was still on all the time. I looked through the active app permissions, and found that the "google" app had location permission. Turned that off, and the location icon immediately went off in the status bar.
I believe that there was a recent update to the google app...does anyone know why the google app would need location services, and whether this would make a difference on an everyday basis? Also, does anyone else see this issue with the location icon? I'm presuming that because the location icon was on that the google app was "using location services" for something.
Thanks.
