Allow apps to detect the location of your Mac. Location Services allows apps and websites to gather and use information based on the current location of your Mac. Your approximate location is determined using information from local Wi-Fi networks, and is collected by Location Services in a manner that doesn’t personally identify you.

  1. Create a folder named 'YourApplication.app'. It can be created at any location that is convenient to your usage. Though, the most OS compliant locations may be /Applications or your own /Applications folder. Put your script file directly in this folder the way that suites you the best (Finder, terminal etc).
  2. On the Insert menu, select Add-ins. To get new add-ins, select Store. To use add-ins you already have, select My Add-ins. The add-ins you'll see will depend on the app you're using and the kind of Microsoft 365 subscription you have.

How to give apps permission to use your location

Some apps might not work unless you turn on Location Services.1 The first time an app needs to access your Location Services information, you'll get a notification asking for permission. Choose one of these options:

  • Tap Allow to let the app use Location Services information as needed.
  • Tap Don't Allow to prevent access.2
  • Tap Ask Next Time to choose Always While Using App, Allow Once, or Don't Allow.
