For the past few weeks, when I press "My Location" on Google Maps, it just says "Waiting for location" and never finds me. It used to be instant. I have it on "Battery Saving" mode for Location but it has been like this for ages and always been fine up until now.

Any suggestions?

Try turning Battery Saving mode off to see if makes a difference?

Yes it does but I don't want to do that particularly as won't it eat up a lot more battery?

Sounds like they have fixed a bug in Battery Saving to now do what it was always meant to do.

Are there any apps you can use to give you closer control of battery munching services?

(I am not an Android user so I am guessing based on my general computing experience)
