@wilmawasalbezet If you click on the padlock badge, do you see anything related to geolocation?

Are you logged in to Google?

@wilmawasalbezet !

On Apple devices you get this screen:

20210128_150853000_iOS.png

If by accident you've already pressed this you change it the the device's settings

@leocg no, Google Maps sees my location.

@u1travio1et I don’t mean Google Maps, I mean this (see screenshot)

@wilmawasalbezet So you already had given access to your location before?

@wilmawasalbezet The padlock icon on the address bar, that usually shows that you are on a secure page.

@wilmawasalbezet What More Details says? It seems some info sent by you device and not by an app.

this is what Leocg was talking about, in the settings of iOS are the location settings for Opera Touch, not in the app itself. as all web browsers for iOS have to use Safari as their base

@u1travio1et yes indeed

@wilmawasalbezet So it means that you are/were logged in Safari. Or used Safari maybe.

@leocg yes I used Safari in the past, but I logged out there. So is it in some memory then?

@wilmawasalbezet Logging out from Google will not delete the register of your activity, you would need to do it manually.

But what it has to do with Opera Touch?

@leocg to be honest, I don’t know what it has to do with Opera Touch. But as you can see Opera Touch says I’m logged in on Safari so I thought somehow my location is registered there. So therefore I logged out in Safari.
So how to do that manually then?
