GrapheneOS and CoMaps Fixing Location Service

If you go into "Location Services" by searching for it in your settings, and turn on "Network location" and "Geocoder", and also turn on location service on CoMaps, it may help with CoMap accessing your current location.

Well, yeah I'd hope that would be obvious. The app doesn't know your location if you don't let it get your location. You also have to grant sensors if you want the compass to work

Its not the obvious "app specific permission" part that I was looking to highlight here. But was a small part I added as a friendly reminder in case for some silly reason may have forgot to enable it.

Its the "network location" and "geocoder" permissions in the "settings" which is a more deep down permission which is far from obvious and not app specific.
