I use background_locator and the App was denied. I have to show a Pop-Up with some Infos. Has anyone already had the same problem and can tell me how and where I can install the PopUp?

Prominent disclosure not found Your app must display a prominent disclosure through a pop-up alert before your app’s location runtime permission. Based on our review, a prominent disclosure did not appear before the runtime permission.

Please add a prominent disclosure before the runtime permission.

Remember, your prominent disclosure must: Appear before your app’s location runtime permission. Include at least the following sentence, adapted to include all the relevant features requesting access to location in the background in the app that are readily visible to the user: “This app collects location data to enable ["feature"], ["feature"], & ["feature"] even when the app is closed or not in use.” If you extend permitted usage to ads, please also include: “This data is also used to provide ads/support advertising/support ads.” Include any other details necessary to make it clear to the user how and why you are using location in the background. While additional content is permitted, it should not cause the required content to not be immediately visible.

Hi @marcoheine Thank you for opening an issue.

I think it would be nice to show that dialog before asking location permission.

@marcoheine This is a new policy of Google and you need to show a dialog warning user that you are going to use background location. You also need to record the screen of the app the moment this dialog appears, upload the video at YouTube for example and post it on PlayStore (location permission topic).

i tried every possible way, and i still have no solution... google's relationship with the developers sucks.
