Locate the User’s Position
The HTML Geolocation API is used to get the geographical position of a user.
Since this can compromise privacy, the position is not available unless the user approves it.
Note
Geolocation is most accurate for devices with GPS, like smartphones.
Browser Support
The Geolocation API is supported in all browsers:
| Chrome | Edge | Firefox | Safari | Opera |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes |
