Toyota App Background Location Permission

How do I turn geolocation on if I initially declined the request to "use my current location" on my My Toyota App? First, exit the app. For iPhones, go to SETTINGS and select PRIVACY. Open LOCATION SERVICES and make sure it is activated.

Scroll down to find My Toyota and verify it is activated, as well. Geolocation should be re. I noticed this too after a recent update.

If you set the permission to "only when using app" it still keeps using location services in the background, even if you are not using any location dependent functions. I have now denied the app any access to location services. Hopefully this is just a bug rather than Toyota tracking us to harvest extra telemetry data.

Deny location permissions on it or set to "while using the app" at least. Why do you even need the Toyota app? However, every time it connects I keep getting prompted with this notification (see screenshot below) in my iPhone from the Toyota app asking "to communicate with the Toyota Multimedia TOYOTA RAV4" and gives me the option to either "Ignore" or "Allow.".

Location permission was already set to Always On (I assume that is what you mean by "Never Exit". Even after verifying that and rebooting the phone, the behaviour in the Toyota app is the same. Anyone know why the Toyota Connect app appears to have location services always on? I have it set to "While Using".

If I kill the app, the blue background disappears. Apps should request the minimum scope necessary (that is, using foreground instead of background device location permissions) to provide the feature or service that requires location. And users should reasonably expect that an app's feature or service needs the level of location requested.

The naming would lead one to believe the permission would be granted and background permission requests only be made when the app is in focus. Is it possible to remove the "Allow only while using the app" option from the choices? Every time I start the truck and phone connects, my Toyota App prompts me to allow connection.

I have looked for a place on the phone & the truck settings to "Always Allow", but did not find. about how you can stay connected with your Toyota using the Toyota App. Check your vehicle's health, control remotely, and more through our app.
