proprietary components #13

Open IzzySoft opened 1 month ago

Looks like today's release made your app non-free by introducing Google Mobile Services. Was that intentional? Hm, looks like: the culprit can be found here:

    // Google PlayService Location Lib
    implementation("com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:21.2.0")

Is that really necessary – or would you consider reverting that? For now, we need to add the NonFreeComp anti-feature to your app at IzzyOnDroid – but that can of course be reverted once there's no proprietary component included anymore.

IS this something same as Advertisement ID cause playstore seem to think so ?

IzzySoft commented 2 weeks ago

No, that would be something different (and require the Ads anti-feature then). But we didn't see an ad framework in the APK.
