What does turning off “Networking & Wireless” in System Services do?

When you toggle the switch off you get a message that says "Turning off location for networking and wireless may affect bluetooth and Wi-Fi performance"

Does it mean it will reduce bluetooth and wifi performance for AirPods and home Wifi as an exemple?

iOS 13.4
8 Plus

Thank you.

Thank you!

So on a iPhone 11 it disables ultra Wideband. So what does it do on an iPhone 8?

In general, it would stop sending out certain location based information. It won’t interfere with your Wi-Fi access or interfere with your Bluetooth connected devices.
