Why does the Wi-Fi app require location permission on my mobile device?
« on: November 20, 2020, 12:56:59 PM »
Due to Google’s and Apple's requirement of Wi-Fi and Bluetooth Site Survey in recent updates, Location Services are required to be enabled when you turn on either Wi-Fi or Bluetooth in the operating system. Therefore permission to access your phone's location is necessary for the app to set up your device.
