Location problem?!

Monkey Targets Forums/iOS/Location problem?!

Just got my game refected at Apple - they're claiming my game is using "location"?

They sent me this picture:


But I didn't coded ANYTHING regarding location. Only thing I'm using is Admob...!

Have anyone faced this before? On my iPad2 with iOS7 I get no such notice - so I don't even know what to do now... (never updated it to iOS8 or higher, I heard it slows down a lot on older hardware like the iPad2)

Did they tell you what iOS they tested it on?

Wondering if it's maybe an iOS9 specific issue?

It's probably admob. They want to target geo-location of ads.

This popup is new to iOS8. I tried to look but couldn't find specific details for this with admob.

Search source files for "locationManager" if it's there you can change it to only request location when the user is in the app, or disable it.

Unless its something in admob code itself... I already checked my source, and no "location" anywhere, not even in the plist file :/

Did you check the correct boxes in the IDFA section when submitting your app?


SLotman(Posted 2015) [#6]
Yup, just marked the first one (using location for ads) and then the last one ("I agree...")
And it doesn't explain why that dialog is showing up for Apple :(
(Here on iOS7, I can't see it no matter how much I try)
