Turning off GPS when closing app

Hi Brain - I just noticed on my new Android tablet (this one has a built in GPS receiver) that the GPS is not turned off when I exit the program. This is an ASUS Memo Pad ME176CX and is running Android version Kitkat 4.4.2. I have also noticed that when iFly GPS turns the GPS on, it turns on 'Locations' which includes both the GPS and Google Locations Service. Even though I have the WiFi turned off, I'd prefer that the app just turns on the GPS. - Thanks - Jim Williams

Thanks for the note Jim. I'll see what I can do about this for the upcoming v9 release.
