Locate Vehicle

Anyone know how to switch off the "Locate Vehicle" function in the Connected app? Would this have any effect on the vehicle's SatNav?

I know you can toggle this in the I drive whether you want tracking or not , so that presumably will reflect back to the app.
Never tried as I enabled mine in the I drive from day 1

if you disable vehicle locate in iDrive it will have no effect on Navigation.

You can turn it off in the iDrive menu (under user privacy as I remember). After that Connected App won't show any location info.
