I am struggling with the Google Play Permissions declaration form. I am trying to get the permission for location tracking in background. Below is the image about my form

enter image description here

Following, I provided every single details of my app to Google. Finally, I got the email from them say:

If anyone has any ideas about the ${APK_VERSIONS}, please let me know. I changed the version code and version name but it has no effect.

EDIT

Below is the Location access request

Thank you in advanced!

  • Can you share more details on the use-case for the location permission requirement? Google believes the location permission is not required for a critical feature of your app. – Abhimanyu Oct 19 '20 at 14:43
  • @Abhimanyu: thanks for the quick reply, we write the use-case super clear in the description of 'Location access'. Following, the issue is related to `${APK_VERSIONS}`, which is super unclear what is happening :( – Luong Truong Oct 20 '20 at 02:32
  • The `${APK_VERSIONS}` seems to be a place holder text in Google Play Console to show your App version which was rejected. It is an issue from Google Play Console end. – Abhimanyu Oct 20 '20 at 03:56
  • The rejection is due to some other reason. Try to investigate that. Screen shots of the location access request and use case helps us to identify it. – Abhimanyu Oct 20 '20 at 03:57
  • @Abhimanyu: I updated the screenshot. About the use-case, we use the location to show vehicle on the map, that is. If you have any clues, please let me know. Thank you! – Luong Truong Oct 20 '20 at 04:34
  • "Please note that if you Log out of the app, the GPS is no longer tracking.". Can you shed light on this statement? Does this mean once I log out of my account, the location tracking stops or if the app is moved to the background, the location tracking stops? – Abhimanyu Oct 20 '20 at 04:41
  • @Abhimanyu: I mean when users log out of the account, the location tracking will stop. – Luong Truong Oct 20 '20 at 06:08
  • Hi, I also ran into this problem recently. Did you solve it? What needs to be done to get the update approved? – droidbaza Nov 02 '20 at 16:32
  • @droidbaza: I just turn of the Permissions declaration form for submitting the new version. My app will last until the end of March, hope your app is working too – Luong Truong Nov 04 '20 at 02:10
  • @LuongTruong how to solved this problem in app? – krishna Apr 02 '21 at 13:27
