Using Location Services
Location services allow applications such as Maps and the camera to use information
from your cellphone or Wi-Fi network as well as Global Positioning System (GPS)
information to determine your approximate location. If you're not within a clear line of
sight of GPS satellites, your device can determine your location using the Wi-Fi function.
And if you're not within range of a network, your device can determine your location
using your cellphone network.
In order to use your device to find out where you are, you need to enable location
services.
You may incur data connection charges when you connect to the internet from your device.

Improving GPS Accuracy
The first time you use the GPS function in your device, it can take a few minutes for your
location to be found. To help the search, make sure you have a clear view of the sky.
Stand still and don't cover the GPS antenna (the highlighted area in the image). GPS
signals can pass through clouds and plastic, but not through most solid objects such as
buildings and mountains. If your location isn't found after a few minutes, move to another
location.
