Google updated its **Location Permissions policy** on April 15, 2026. Policy announcement ➡ [Policy announcement: April 15, 2026 - Play Console Help](https://support.google.com/googleplay/android-developer/answer/16926792)

To stay compliant, approximate location is now set as the default. If precise location is necessary for your app, you can still enable it by opening the Publish Tab → Android Export Settings → Update Settings. You can also select None, if your app doesn’t use any location features. Republish your app to pick up the change!
