Uber went from allowing "While using the app" + "Always" to only "Always".

I was perhaps misunderstanding the parent as suggesting that once an app has allowed "While using the app" as a choice, that could never be removed - ie Uber would still have to allow "While using the app" as a choice.

If that was the case, apps might avoid offering the "While using" choice in the first place if they might ever consider the need to remove it, no?



I was suggesting that no application should be allowed to remove "while using" ever, regardless of what they initially offered.

that is the current permutations which an application can provide are:

* no, using, always

* no, using

* no, always

I do not think the latter should be allowed.


I would definitely be on-board with this proposal (or "for one hour, until the end of the day" similar to "Find Friends".)
