Hello,

I have been reading in the Internet there is/there was a location history database in IPhone called "consolidated.db" which stored GPS coordinates of every point you visited and its date and time by using triangulation.

Does this file still exist in the latest versions of the OS?

Thanks!

Some years ago consolidated.db file really contained the information about all Cell towers and WiFi networks in the vicinity. But starting from iOS 5 all this vital data was moved from this file to cache_encryptedA.db. You can access cache_encryptedA.db if you jailbreak iOS device only.
