Hi! Any progress with this issue? I really don't like the new behaviour
of the Location Indicator. Now if I want to navigate with my phone, I
need to enable Location Detection on the indicator, then go to the
System Settings app -> Battery -> and enable the GPS. This is not the
best solution. I don't want the GPS enabled all the time, so now I need
to open the System Settings every time to enable/disable it,  and the
app starts really slow...

  [Location Indicator Menu] GPS switch should be turned off when
  "Location detection" is off

Bug description:
  After a conversation with tvoss, I understand that if I turn the
  "Location detection" switch off, effectively GPS will be turned off
  too.

  However, the two switches are independent: I can switch "Location
  detection" off and the "GPS" switch will stay on. This might be
  confusing for users: I'd expect both switches to go off when turning
  "Location detection" off.

  
  ------ UX Comment ------

  Location section in the Indicators spec has been updated with latest
  visuals and desired behaviour.

  On tap of 'Location settings...', users can choose to use 'GPS only'
  (without using Here services) in the relevant System settings screen.
