Please remove the need to share location

I can’t understand why there is a need to permanently share my location. It’s a privacy concern to do it.
Also, pretty please, create an Apple Watch app. It’s more practical to touch with it than taking the phone out of the pocket. Plenty of people in the offices have one.

Developer Response ,

Hello Patrick,

Thank you for your feedback. We can assure you our app or any 3rd party does not store your location. Location service only uses its permission necessary to operate the app in the background (system requirement). If you use the app only in the foreground, you do not have to agree to location service.

You can find more here directly from the manufacturer of the readers and mobile credentials provider: https://mocainc.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360002897416-Location-service-FAQ

Apple has announced a possibility to have your employee badge stored in Apple Wallet - this will allow you to use it without location permissions both with iPhone and Watch devices. Unfortunately, this feature is now available in some regions, but not in the Czech Republic yet.

If there is anything else we can help you with, please feel free to contact us at support@sharryapp.com.

Kind regards,
Jakub from Sharry

useless without Wallet support

why do you need Apple Wallet support as mentioned on you App Store page if you don't use it?
requring constant access to device's location is a subpar choice when you have access to iOS's more secure Wallet option.

only marginally useful as a substitution to a plastic card in case of loss.

Unreliable

There is nothing worst than being stuck in front of the elevators or your office doors not being able to enter because your digital badge is not reacting. In this day an age I expect that things are thoroughly tested before implementation. Very disappointed in Crestyl and Sharry in driving this initiative so unprofessionally.
