Each time I wake up my phone (S7), I see "Finding location" pop up on my screen. What is causing this prompt?
Thank you,
Rip

You probably have location turned on to high accuracy. Pull down the notification tray. Find the location button. Long press. It will bring up the settings. Set it to power saving or just turn location off altogether if you don't use it

You can also see which app is using high mode and it should be one of those apps. You can adjust the settings if possible, or revoke location permissions for the app.

I would advise against turning off high mode all together unless you never need gps for navigation or something. Although you can turn it on at that time too
