Is the Share my Location option working?

I clicked on the GPS location icon and it showed my location, then turned on the location switch and didn't want to get turned on. I twitted like that anyway and my location didn't show up.
Why 2 buttons for one function? Share my location should locate me and show my location. Turning it off should just delete my location. I don't see the need of the GPS icon. Unless I'm not understanding something.

    They are two separate actions, since we've disabled "Share my Location" in the current beta it might not make sense.

    The GPS(Locate Me) icon is for refreshing your location when you want. Share my location is for you to enabled sharing your location, it is included as per Twitter's application design guidelines in order to give you the option to share your location or otherwise on every Tweet. It'll be clear once we have them all enabled.

    Thanks for your feedback, keep them coming.
