Apple has expanded its 'Limit Precise Location' privacy feature in iOS 26.5 to support more carriers and countries, reducing the location precision shared with mobile carriers (e.g., neighborhood-level rather than street-level). The feature currently only works on devices using Apple's in-house C1/C1X cellular modems (selected iPhone and iPad models), includes a list of newly supported carriers, and can be enabled via Settings > Cellular > Cellular Data Options > Limit Precise Location.
