Location Data
Location Tracker is designed to provide location tracking features. To provide these features, the app may access your device location, including precise or approximate location, depending on your device settings and granted permissions
The app collects location data to enable real-time location tracking, latest location updates, current location display, and location history, even when the app is closed or not in use.
Background location access is required to keep the tracking feature working continuously. Without background location access, the app cannot provide continuous location updates.
Before requesting location permission, the app shows a prominent disclosure explaining why location access is needed, including background location access for continuous tracking. Users can choose whether to allow or deny location permission.
The app uses location data for the following purposes:
- To show your current location on a map
