Why does the eufySecurity app ask for location permission when setting up the Smart Lock R10?

With an Android phone (v6.0 or above), the app will ask for the device’s general location to access BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) devices.

 

This data will not be saved and it is only used to establish a connection between the Smart Lock R10 and the phone.


If there are any other questions about the Smart Lock R10, please contact us for further assistance.
