how do I present a problem when uploading an application to the play store, they constantly reject the application due to the permission issue, I attach the information they send me and an image of the permission that I am making, how could I solve that?

Missing information in prominent disclosure Your prominent disclosure must appear before your app’s location runtime permission, and should tell the user which feature(s) will use location in the background. Based on our review, your app’s prominent disclosure did not meet this criteria.

Based on our review, your prominent disclosure doesn’t comply with our policy requirements.The language in the disclosure MUST include the following elements: The term “location” Indication that the nature of usage is in the background by using one of the following phrases “background” / “when the app is closed” / “always in use” / “when the app is not in use” A list of all the features that use location in the background If you extend permitted usage to ads, you must include the following: “used to provide ads / support advertising / support ads.” (Choose the most accurate phrasing) To meet the policy requirements, it’s recommended that you reference one of the following example formats, the second example includes the use of location for ads (choose the most relevant phrasing):

“[This app] collects location data to enable ["feature"], ["feature"], & ["feature"] even when the app is closed or not in use.” “[This app] collects location data to enable ["feature"], ["feature"], & ["feature"] even when the app is closed or not in use and it is also used to support advertising.” Example: “Fitness Funds collects location data to enable fitness tracking even when the app is closed or not in use.” The prominent disclosure should not appear alongside other data privacy disclosures or as part of the privacy policy. The prominent disclosure also should not contain contradicting or unclear information.

Please modify your prominent disclosure and make sure to include the updated prominent disclosure in the video required in the Developer Console as part of the in-app experience.

You find a similar app that has "passed", and you use them as a "pattern". No yeah buts.

1 solution

The instructions are pretty clear - we have no idea what your disclosure looks like at present, so we can't even start to suggest changes; but the text they sent you gives examples of what they require: use those as a pattern and be accurate about what permissions your app requires and why.

We can't help you do that, we have no idea what your app does, what permissions it asks for, or how your disclosure is worded.
