I checked on my iPad and it works fine. So I don't think it is the application itself. I have gone in to the settings and made sure location settings was all good and all the usual trouble shooting stuff. It was working, and it became grayed a couple of days ago so not sure what happen. Just seeing if anybody ran into this before</P></BODY></HTML> Tue, 27 Sep 2016 13:04:09 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-web-appbuilder-questions/my-location-widget-grayed-out-on-android/m-p/635365#M16861 ErikBlake 2016-09-27T13:04:09Z Re: My Location widget grayed out on Android https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-web-appbuilder-questions/my-location-widget-grayed-out-on-android/m-p/635366#M16862 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Erik,</P><P></P><P>&nbsp; &nbsp;That is by design.
