## Feature Description

Moving the decision making for location sharing to the point where a user takes action, helps the user make a clearer choice about how much information they want to share and for how long. This empowers users to limit data sharing to only what apps need in that session. Once consent is provided, this session based access eliminates repeated prompts for location dependent features.
