Hi @Blakes747
It can be switched off in the EE App under Profile in the top right and then Settings > App Settings > Device Permissions > Share device location, and setting this to the off position.
The description given for the feature is "Help us find and fix any issues affecting our network".
It would have been one of the permissions asked for when setting up the app.
