The Significant Locations feature plays an essential role in sending specific alerts for Calendar, Maps, Photos, details of traffic, etc., on iPhone. This feature uses Apple Maps to track all visited places. However, some users cannot see Significant Locations after the iOS 15 update. Since this feature shows the exact time and date of the places I visited, I would prefer to keep Significant Locations turned on.
Many iOS 14 users reported that they could not access Significant Locations even though it shows all places. Some users claim that the company is tracking users’ locations with Significant Locations. But Apple cleared that this feature is end-to-end encrypted, and no one can track down a user’s place. However, many users found this helpful feature to enable and view Significant Locations on iOS 15.
