For example, if you have bluetooth disabled but your location services run on “high accuracy”, your phone still uses bluetooth in the background to ping nearby devices.

»This does not stop even after I have deactivated the Bluetooth function. In order for Bluetooth to be completely paused, you have to set it separately elsewhere.«

ATTENTION: This location determination via Bluetooth does not stop when the Bluetooth function is deactivated. The device continues to search for Bluetooth connections and sends the result to G°°gle.
