I must be missing something -- what does the Uber Driver settings page have that the other apps don't have, other than the lack of an "Always" option? How does that translate to "can always get my location even when in the background regardless of permission"?

My best guess here is that OP is cross-posting their tech support question to HN and hoping that they get some smart cookie to provide a good answer.

I'm flagging it as guidelines-violating self promotion.

As answered in the thread, it has permissions. It has a navigation entitlement.

As answered in the thread by the person who posted the original question and crossposted this support forum question to HN.

I'm flagging OP's HN submission as self-promotion that's against the site's guidelines, and wondering what upvote farm brought it to the front page.
