I have a small little icon on the top right of my screen that looks like a cross hair with three crescent shaped moons on the right side of it. I can't remember what it is and if I need to turn it off. Thanks!
It does not drain your battery. it allows the OS to let applications access the GPS chip and acquire a location fix if you allow the application to use GPS. you can leave it on all the time and then only allow the application you want to have access and close them completely out when done. Even "dumb" phones have this option.

Exactly. I hate seeing people telling others to keep it off to save battery. GPS On only means that an app will be allowed to use gps if required. It does not mean it is constantly searching for GPS satellites.
