My organization recently restricted our phones to GPS-based US locations. GPS coordinates are provided by the Microsoft Authenticator app, which will require Location Services to be enabled. The recommended setting is Always On. However, the authenticator app does not enable me to turn location services on, the functionality to do so is not available at all. However, if I try to do the same with other apps, like Bank of America or Uber, the location services option is available. Anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this?
