Environment (please complete the following information):

  • App version: 2.3
  • Android version: 14 April patch
  • Device: Pixel 7 Pro

Nothing I can change. Play Protect is the bug.

"This app collects data that could be used to track you" is correct, of course. Like any app that uses GPS.

But that is also the case for maps.me and osmand. Is there a reason why Play Protect is triggered in this case?

no it's just a stupid Google warning protecting you from stuff they don't make money from.

I always switch it off...
