Germany adopted the Apple/Google framework, which is exactly what an Apple/Google app would use. The whole point of the design is that it’s decentralized and you wouldn’t be giving Apple/Google more information.
- Spearchucker 6y agoTrue. Except that the German app turns on EVERYTHING - LTE, WiFi, Bluetooth, GPS. And the carrier gets it all. I had the app installed for all of maybe 2 minutes because it did exactly what it claimed to do, but I'm not giving the carrier even more granular location info. The only thing I leave on when I leave the house is mobile data.
- usr1106 6y agoI'm not in Germany and I don't have compatible phone. But from all I have read the claim about turning on GPS is plain wrong.
- danijoo 6y agoGerman android user here. This is absolutely wrong. I suspect you are misinterpreting the permission message on Android. The app does not turn anything on. I suggest you to learn how androids permission system works before throwing out wrong accusions.
- Spearchucker 6y agoI stand by my post.
