Not mentioned in the headline: When the user is _not_ logged in, iOS collects "location" whereas Android does not.
I am actually a little surprised that iOS would gather this information. What use would it serve?

Find My Phone? It is a choice to enroll in this, and it’s mighty convenient when you lose or get your phone stolen.

That works when you're not logged in?

Can you even imagine? Lost your phone? Did you make sure that you were logged in before you lost it? Did the thief reset the phone and log you out? Oh, guess you can't find your phone now. Sorry.

Once you’re signed in you stay signed in and you can’t sign out without authenticating. Resetting the phone doesn’t bypass this.
