    It specifies it’s from the app, so they have access through the native functionality for that. When you go to install it, it lists the data it accesses, and by downloading and using it, that’s how they are given permission.

    Protip: Don’t use the app

      Some of those categories of information (location, health, contacts for example) require the user to accept on an iOS prompt. The app won’t be given access otherwise. Apple are usually pretty strict about apps only asking for those permissions if there’s a valid reason. I’m curious to know what they would be though.

      I still won’t be using the app.
