Sky G.cph(@skyguoCypherium):Hey @Lyft, I’ve set location access for all apps on my iPhone to “While Using the App.” However, even when I’m not using the Lyft app, I still receive push notifications based on where I am. Can you explain why this is happening? Is Lyft collecting my location when the app isn’t in use? If so, what data is being used, and how does that align with my location permission settings?
