iPad maps: hide location circle Is ther a way to hide the blue location circle on the iPad maps? I know I could disable wifi, but I still want to be able to access the maps. What I am trying to do is to zoom all the way out in satellite mode and see if I can find things without any labels.
(For iOS 6)


Open Settings.app
Tap "Privacy"
Tap "Location Services"
Scroll down until you see the "Maps" app
Turn the switch "Off"


This will effectively disable the the blue dot. If you have Google Maps or Google Earth installed, you can also disable the location services for those apps as well. You will find each app that uses location services listed under the main on/off switch.
