This information is only used internally by WhatRoute and is not transmitted to any 3rd party.
###To use Location Services you must:
Enable in Preferences
Open WhatRoute Preferences and check the item Use Location Services on the Trace and Ping panel.
Allow WhatRoute to use Location Services

Have an active Wi-Fi connection
Location Services will only work if your Wi-Fi network interface is active. If WhatRoute detects that the interface is inactive, it will present you with an alert to either give-up or go to Network Settings and enable the interface.
###To stop using Location Services
Disable in Preferences
Open WhatRoute Preferences and un-check the item Use Location Services on the Trace and Ping panel.
Disable in System Settings
Open System Settings and navigate to Security & Privacy/Privacy/Location Services.
Unlock the panel and either disable the service completely or uncheck the entry for WhatRoute.
