I generally don’t set my app location tracking to ‘Always’, but wondering if that needed in order to successfully use PAAK?

if I leave it on ‘While Using the App’, am I able to use PAAK without opening the app or will I have to leave is set to ‘Always’?

I’m using iPhone. Thanks

Paak uses geofencing/Beacon monitoring for when to establish the connection, and for that to work in the background it needs the "Always" permission so that the app can wake to then act as a key (rough explanation).

If you don't give it this permission, it should only work if the app is open in the foreground.
