You promised to not collect any data now and give the user full control over their data and privacy. Now your app forces the user to enable the location setting to “Always” so you can collect device location at all time.
I am unsure why you are doing this, you may have 1000’s of reasons but none justifies utilizing human beings for your benefit. If this was always the intent then why such facade in the name of Allah? I am sure you are fully capable of making money then n the righteous way but please don’t follow the same practices that other do, that was the only thing that set you apart! Please Give back the control to the user so they can decide to set how they want to configure their location. The unnecessary pop ups and enforcing the user to finally give in and set the location to always. I don’t believe your mission doesn’t align with this practice and neither the teachings of prophet Mohammed (SAW)!
Here is the reminder your mission in the beginning and the functions of your app doesn’t align. My family and I trusted you in the hopes to control our own information. It’s heartbreaking to see Pillars doing the same thing. Alhumdulillah love your app but it seems you are drifting away from your main mission. Allah is giving you amazing amount of success, please stop the practices that you have adopted.
Humble request you to look at us as humans and not someone’s commodity. Give back full control to the user to configure the location details instead of pushing them by increasing enforcements’.
Look I am deeply saddened to see that even the pillars app owners are slowly being tangled into Shaitan’s trap and forgetting your promises to Allah!
