How do I stop live location sharing?

Stop live location sharing

Live location sharing uses GPS in the background while it is active. This is how you turn it off:

  1. Open the WandelWeb app
  2. Go to the map where you are sharing live location (on a route or on the Record screen)
  3. Tap the live location icon to turn sharing off
  4. You will see the confirmation "Live location sharing stopped"

Good to know:

  • Closing the app is not enough — you must explicitly turn off live location sharing
  • On Android, the WandelWeb notification in the status bar disappears once all active features are stopped
  • Multiple features active at once? See also: Why does WandelWeb stay active in the background and how do I stop it? in the Navigate and Record category
