Abstract

A mobile computing device is disclosed. The mobile computing device includes a location determination circuit and a processing circuit. The processing circuit determines a current location of the mobile computing device and a destination location. The processing circuit determines an expected travel time from the current location to the destination location, and disables continuous location tracking for a duration of time. The duration is determined based on the expected travel time. Once the duration of time has elapsed, the processing circuit enables continuous location tracking.
