[Bug 1588500] Re: Applications with permission for location claim they don't

 

This message, from the browser log, is relevant:

qml: [JS] (:0) getCurrentPosition() and watchPosition() are deprecated
on insecure origins. To use this feature, you should consider switching
your application to a secure origin, such as HTTPS. See
https://goo.gl/rStTGz for more details.

This is enforced by chromium: websites and webapps that want to access
the device’s location will need to do so over HTTPS.

** Changed in: webbrowser-app (Ubuntu)

Bug description:
  OTA11 - same problem on BQ4.5phone & M10 tablet.

  Hurray! Location works on the tablet at last.. HERE maps can get a
  position.

  But I can't use the location in the browser or a browser-like web
  app.. It used to work on the phone in OTA10.1
