Check if 'Access to my location' is enabled - Android

Question

I have an android app that uses location. But I noticed that if users disable the \'Access to my location\' in Settings > Location access, nothing works anymore. How can I check

Answer 1

Unfortunately, it seems the using of Settings.Secure.LOCATION_PROVIDERS_ALLOWED is deprecated since API 19.

A new way to do that would be:

int locationMode = Settings.Secure.getInt(
    getContentResolver(),
    Settings.Secure.LOCATION_MODE,
    Settings.Secure.LOCATION_MODE_OFF // Default value if not found
);

if (locationMode == Settings.Secure.LOCATION_MODE_OFF) {
    // Location is off
}
