    Something is using location services. Go to Settings -> Privacy -> Location services and see if any of the apps have that same icon beside them. If not, tap the "system services" item and see what system service is using location.

    You have a ton of apps using your gps. Pink arrow means it is using it currently or just used it. Grey means it used within the past 24 hours.

    You can turn off all those in System Services. They're not necessary.

    Yep, and Google+ is a killer because it runs non stop.

    It does not give option to use location "when using app". Most apps do.

    This is why I detest Google. I wouldn't use Google+ if you paid me, honestly.
