    Even if you have no intention of using your location or recording a track, the camera in your phone will record locations of your photos which are extremely useful to future expeditions - for reasons which only become apparent when you yourself try to work out what someione did 10 years previously. -

    Your camera will use the same locaiton settings as the rest of your phone, but sometimes with a bit of a delay. We have lots of examples of geo-located photos where the recorded location is alctually the location of the previous photo because someone has taken a quick photo but the phone hasn't had time after waking up to get a location, so it uses the previous one! And doesn't tell you!! +

    So when taking a photo of an entrance, always take one photo; delete it, and take another. This will give your phone a chance to get synchronised properly.
