Can people access my location because of my iphone?
I don't currently own an iphone, but I'm looking into it once the new iphone 5s comes out.
I'm trying to decide what to do, because I'm incredibly uncomfortable with the possibility that people could see where I have been. I'm not talking about apple itself, but just anyone who wanted to see (like a psychopath! )
I read an article which made me think about this, so I'm curious as to what everyone thinks/knows.
this was the article: http://www.csmonitor.com/Science/2013/0513/Can-your-iPhone-s-digital-footprints-reveal-your-physical-location
Please help me! I don't want people being able to find my house or follow me places!

How would someone find out my apple id/password?
Sorry! I seriously still have a flip phone and I'm quite the novice at smartphones: P
I'm I previous owner of an iphone, and I know that all apps will ask before they can use your location and If anyone else know your apple id and password they can track your iphone by using the icloud.com website which helps you find your phone if you have lost it.
You can check if a app uses your location bu going to "settings - privacy - location services" and if the app says "on" it uses your location, however if an app is currently using your location, in the top right-hand corner you would see a purple arrow.
- Tech geniuses. Is there a way to fake your iPhone s location? *specifically on find my friends /location services*? Wondering if anyone can help me either 1) freeze my iPhones location at a specific spot or 2) completely fake the location (without jailbreaking my phone) I'm required to share my location at all times to my parents and need a night a feeedom.
- Is there anyway to spoof your location on life 360 or change your gps location on an iPhone? I've tired just about everything to not be tracked on Life360 and it will notify if you turn it on airplane mode or turn off your location settings. Also can't delete the app need help. Or is there anyway to change your gps location in an iPhone without jailbreaking it?
