Thank you for your post. App Review will respond to you shortly. However, on the email you posted, and thank you for that, you can see exactly what they are asking. For privacy, you should provide a reason why you are requesting the precise location of the user. Your description, “Used for App Functionality and Other purposes,” does not provide the user with any information.
Privacy is very important to both the user and Apple. They want to know the reason you want the user’s location. The reason you provided is not a good reason, nor does it provide a clear and complete description of the use of the location.
A precise location description should provide the user with the information and reason you need the location. Some examples:
Coffee Shop App:
"We use your precise location to find nearby coffee shops and provide turn-by-turn directions. This helps you easily navigate to your favorite cafe or discover new ones."
Runner's App:
"Your location is vital for tracking your runs and providing real-time statistics, such as distance, pace, and route map. We use this data to give you accurate feedback and help you achieve your fitness goals."
Example of a bad description:
"Location data is used for some things."
By providing a specific and detailed description, you will not only enhance your app's transparency but also increase the likelihood of gaining user trust and approval.
