Many of the apps and services you use on a daily basis are probably using your location data in one way or another whether it's to provide transit directions or to serve up recommendations for nearby points of interest.

On the iPhone, you can view a list of each individual location that's been logged through Location Services, the feature that enables Apple and third-party apps to gather location data to provide services like those mentioned above. Apple determines your device's approximate location through GPS and Bluetooth signals as well as crowd-sourced Wi-Fi hotspots and cell tower locations.

This list of places, called Significant Locations, is encrypted end-to-end and cannot be read by Apple. You can also turn it off in the iPhone's Settings menu.

Here's a look at how to view and edit the list of locations tracked through Location Services.

Open the Settings menu on your iPhone by tapping the icon on your home screen.
