Help your device get a more accurate location (Location Accuracy, also known as Google Location Services)

Muhimu: Si vifaa vyote vina mawimbi ya simu za mkononi, GPS au data ya vitambuzi vya kifaa. Mipangilio ya Usahihi wa Mahali hutumia mawimbi yanayopatikana ili kukadiria mahali.

Ili kuboresha data ya mahali kifaa kilipo, vifaa vya Android vilivyo na huduma za Google Play vina huduma ya Usahihi wa Mahali ambayo hutumia maelezo kutoka kwenye mawimbi ya simu za mkononi, kama vile milango ya mitandao ya Wi-Fi, minara ya mtandao wa simu na GPS, pamoja na data ya vitambuzi vya vifaa, kama vile kipima mchapuko na gurudumu tuzi, ili kuruhusu kifaa chako kukadiria haraka na kwa usahihi zaidi data ya mahali kifaa kilipo, hasa katika maeneo ambayo GPS haipatikani au imezuiwa, kama vile ndani au karibu na majengo makubwa. Pata maelezo zaidi kuhusu huduma za Google Play.

Kipengele cha Usahihi wa Mahali kinapowashwa, mara kwa mara Google hukusanya maelezo kuhusu vitambuzi na mawimbi ya simu za mkononi yaliyo karibu nawe ili kuchangia data ya mahali ya mawimbi ya simu za mkononi kutoka vyanzo vingi, ikitumia vitambulishi vinavyotolewa kinasibu, vya muda ambavyo vinabadilika na ambavyo havihusiani na mtu au akaunti mahususi. Vitambulishi hivi hubadilika kiotomatiki na mara kwa mara. Hatua hizi huzuia usitambuliwe kwenye data iliyokusanywa. Pata maelezo zaidi kuhusu uchakataji wa data ya Usahihi wa Mahali.

Kidokezo: Huduma ya Usahihi wa Mahali inapatikana pia kwenye Fitbit Ace LTE.

Turn your device's location accuracy on or off

Android 12 and higher and Fitbit Ace LTE

1. Open Settings .
2. Tap Location Location Services Location Accuracy.
3. Turn Improve Location Accuracy on or off.

Android 11 and lower

1. Open Settings .
2. Tap Location Advanced Location Accuracy.
3. Turn Improve Location Accuracy on or off.

When Location Accuracy is on

When Location Accuracy is on, your device uses these sources to get the most accurate location, which may include elevation or floor level:

• Wireless signals, if available, such as:
  • GPS
  • Wi-Fi
  • Mobile cellular networks
• Sensors, if available, such as:
  • Accelerometer
  • Barometer
  • Gyroscope

This can be especially important if you’re using your device indoors or when GPS satellites are obscured, because in those situations devices need to use additional signals to be able to estimate their location. Apps and services with the appropriate permissions can use this location to provide you with location-based features.

When Location Accuracy is off

When your device’s Location Accuracy is off:

• When available, only GPS and device sensors, such as accelerometer, barometer, and gyroscope, will be used to determine your device’s location, which may impact the availability and accuracy of locations for apps and services such as Google Maps and finding a lost device.
• Wireless signals and sensor data are not collected by the Location Accuracy service. However, emergency location services or your mobile carrier can still automatically send your device’s location enhanced by Location Accuracy to emergency responders when you call or text an emergency number.

Tip: No location or Location Accuracy data is collected by Google in such a scenario. Learn about emergency location services. 

Muhimu:

• Kwenye vifaa vinavyotumia Android 12 na matoleo mapya zaidi, unaweza kudhibiti ruhusa ya kufikia data ya mahali mahususi kwa kila programu kivyake. Hii ni tofauti na Usahihi wa Mahali, ambayo ni mipangilio ya mahali kwenye kifaa chako inayoruhusu matumizi ya vyanzo zaidi kupata data ya mahali iliyo sahihi zaidi. Unapowasha mipangilio ya Usahihi wa Mahali, unaweza kuipa programu ruhusa za mahali palipokadiriwa pekee ikiwa hungependa kuiruhusu ifikie data ya mahali mahususi kifaa chako kilipo. Ukizima mipangilio ya Usahihi wa Mahali, huenda programu zisiweze kupata data sahihi ya mahali kifaa chako kilipo. Learn how to choose which apps use your Android device’s location.
• Baadhi ya vifaa, kama vishikwambi vya Wi-Fi-pekee, havina GPS wala huduma ya kutambua mahali wakati wa dharura.
