    Hello;
    Can anyone tell me why the locations approval on the app must be always on, and not just when the app is used in order to do tracklogs. I only uses tracklogs when the app is open??

    Best regards

        Im sure this was not the case previously.
        I always had setting 'only while using app' but after a recent update this would no longer work and I must now have 'always on'.
        So I belive this is a bug because it used to work correctly and now does not?

          My pet peeve. I often open the app to look at a route (not navigate it) or check setttings, and I am always irritated to have to switch location on.
          Just thought I'd let you know it's not just you!

          I guess, from a tech point of view, it's easier to only have one place very early on after starting the app to request location is enabled, but I would far prefer it to be requested just before navigating a route.

            Because some apps can run in the background and are not really active on that moment.
