Chrome for Android could soon get a new layer of location privacy
- Google is testing a new approximate location option for Chrome’s Android app.
- Unlike Android’s system-level location controls for apps, the new option should give users more granular control over the level of location permissions different websites can access.
- The option allows Chrome to retain precise location permission at the app level while still enabling you to grant only approximate location to individual sites.
Chrome for Android is quietly testing a smarter, more privacy-friendly location-sharing option that lets users share only their approximate location with websites. The new option is not to be confused with Android’s system-level location controls for apps. Instead, it appears to be designed to give Chrome users on Android more granular control over the level of location permissions different websites can access.
