It’s not spying.. actually it’s to send your location one time upon your request. And you need to manually aim your phone.
Id not be surprised if one time location send would take 3-5% of the battery as it’ll take 15-60 seconds to transmit you location.
The satellite is 1400km away so not your average 3km cellular tower.
