Do you mean prompting for permission to scan local networks? “Localization” normally refers to translating an app into another language.

Sorry I meant "location", when an app is accessing gps too often, they send a notification (e.g: I get a weekly notif for foursquare)

I believe they are referring to the icon that appears in the status bar when an application is using location services (including in the background).
