# How to verify if the application has permission for location services on both Android and iPhone
### How to Check if an App Has Permission for Location Services on Android
1. Open the **Settings** app on your Android device.
2. Scroll down and select **Apps & notifications**.
3. Scroll to find the app for which you want to check location permissions and tap it.
4. On the app's info screen, select **Permissions**.
5. Find the **Location** permission and check if it is turned **on**.
- If it’s turned **off**, toggle it **on** to grant the app permission to access your device’s location.
- To customize the location access, tap **Location** again and choose from:
- **Allow all the time**
- **Allow only while using the app**
- **Deny**
### How to Check if an App Has Permission for Location Services on iPhone
1. Open the **Settings** app on your iPhone.
2. Scroll down and tap the app for which you want to check location permissions.
3. Tap **Location**.
4. Check the selected option:
- **While Using the App** – allows access only while the app is open.
- **Always** – grants access at all times.
- **Never** – completely restricts access.
5. If you previously denied location access, you can change this setting here to allow it again.
### Conclusion
Ensuring that an app has the correct location permissions is crucial for it to function properly. These steps allow you to verify and manage those settings on both Android and iPhone. Keep in mind that location access can impact your privacy—only grant it when you're comfortable with how the app will use your location data.
