# My Location
*Sets and stores GPS lat and lon of your preferred city*
To access, you have two options:
**In the App Loader** once My Location is installed, click on the 'Save' icon
next to it - and you can choose your location on a map.
**On Bangle.js** go to `Settings -> Apps -> My Location`
* Select one of the preset Cities, setup through the GPS, waypoints (if installed) or use the webinterface from the AppLoader
* Other Apps can read this information to do calculations based on location
* When the City shows ??? it means the location has been set through the GPS
## Example Code
const LOCATION_FILE = "mylocation.json";
let location;
// requires the myLocation app
function loadLocation() {
location = require("Storage").readJSON(LOCATION_FILE,1)||{"lat":51.5072,"lon":0.1276,"location":"London"};
}
## Screenshots
### Select one of the Preset Cities
