 `atomWithLocation` creates a new atom that links to `window.location`.
 
+Typically, you should only instantiate `atomWithLocation` once per application. This is because changes made to one instance might not be reflected in others.
+As this atom is designed to synchronize with the `window.location` object, using multiple instances can lead to unpredictable behavior.
+
 ### Parameters
 
 **options** (optional): an object of options to customize the behavior of the atom
