Thinking back, I seem to remember that in order to receive notifications the app had to be running in the background while phone location was turned on, giving LG precise location tracking all the time. Is that no longer the case?
I don't think so. I've had the notifications off though so I'm not 100%. I turned them back on so I'll know soon enough.
I've re-enabled notifications now and was receiving them fine with location setting of "only when app in use". Then this morning I disabled location permissions entirely for the app and I continue to receive the notifications.
The one useful feature I've missed is a high temperature warning for my refrigerator, so since they fixed the app it may be time for another try. Thanks for checking that out.
