Turn it off
- Open Settings.
- Tap Privacy & Security › Location Services.
- Scroll to Camera and tap it.
- Choose Never.
From now on, photos and videos you take won’t include where they were taken.
Or make it less precise
Choose While Using the App and turn off Precise Location. New photos save an approximate area (a few kilometers) instead of your exact spot.
What this doesn’t change
- Photos you already took keep their location. To remove it, see how to remove location from photos.
- Other hidden details stay: the date, time and phone model are still saved. See what EXIF data is.
- Other camera apps have their own location setting.
