+                    <p>GrapheneOS provides the ability to use network location as an opt-in
+                    feature.</p>
+
+                    <p>Enabling the network location feature will make getting a location lock
+                    indoors and in cities with tall buildings much faster, or possible when it would
+                    have previously been impossible. Additionally, network location improves app
+                    compatibility for apps that expect a fast location lock from the network
+                    location provider which they won't get when it's off and GNSS is being used
+                    instead.</p>
+
+                    <p>The feature works by sending nearby Wi-Fi network identifiers to the service,
+                    which returns positioning data for those networks and other nearby ones to store
+                    in a temporary in-memory cache. Your location is estimated using a robust
+                    on-device multilateration algorithm.</p>
+
+                    <p>In the future, GrapheneOS plans to provide an option for offline network
+                    location using downloaded data instead of having to send data to a service.</p>
+
+                    <p>For details on how to use the network location feature, see the
