Use Bluetooth only (without GPS) #276

I have bluetooth enabled, location permissions granted but GPS disabled. I receive such error log On Android M and above detecting beacons requires Location to be turned on but still can use your SDK for my needs. I don't need exact proximity either as I want to stay with GPS turned off. Can I ignore with caution?

Yes. It needs permission ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION to start BLE scanning. This permissions does not require GPS.
