This is useful in many situations. Be sure to get the device owners consent when the app launches and honor all requests to not track a device location. It's generally best to leave this setting OFF unless you're certain end-users are aware of the purpose of you tracking their devices location. EVERY APP SHOULD PROVIDE END-USERS WITH A SETTINGS OR OPTIONS PANEL TO TURN OFF GPS TRACKING.
