Are all you happy iPhone users aware of this little gem, recently introduced into the OS of your phone?
Go to Settings/Privacy/Location Services and then scroll all the way down to the bottom of the list to System Services/Frequent Locations/History. There you will find a nice list of all the places where you’ve stopped for a significant length of time. You can even drill right down and see the exact times/dates you were there.
Apple introduced this and buried any mention of it in a huge list of Ts & Cs (that no-one ever reads, they just click “Accept” and go play with the other headlined features of the update).
I have seen this but you can disable and also clear history, l have nothing to hide so I am safe.
I’ve also got nothing to hide but I truly believe that Apple have and it ■■■■■■ me off that that they KEEP trying to sneek ■■■■ like this through and hope that it doesn’t get noticed by the masses btw because of things like this I’m seriously considering moving away from apple. They tried this before and it was only because a couple of geeks any of it came to light and apple admitted what it was doing.

Thanks for that Roy, dead give away if the Rozzers get hold of my phone after I’ve been on a Prostitute Murdering Spree !
Good job the wife doesn’t know about it. 
Ken.
All mobile phones track your movements, even my 10 year old Nokia could tell the Police exactly where I was today.
Don’t people already know this? The Police used mobile phone data to track Ian Huntley after the Soham murders, and that must have been ten years ago now.
Not exactly, it can’t. Outside of big towns, each “cell” of a cellular phone network is typically several miles across. You could be anywhere inside that cell, moving or static. It is possible to calculate movement over bigger distances from the timings as you move from cell to cell.
So it would not be possible to tell if, for example, I stayed at home all day yesterday, or went into town and sat outside the Post Office, or went to see my mistress.
The bigger difference of course is that mobile phone location data is only available to TPTB, and then only if they jump through the appropriate hoops in the right order. This iPhone stuff (Google does something similar as well) is potentially available at a moment’s notice to anyone who picks up your phone for a few seconds.
