Your use case

What would you like to do?

Remove the request for background location permission when starting a live location share.

Why would you like to do it?

This permission is actually not needed since we use a foreground service which is started when the app is running. (see https://developer.android.com/guide/components/foreground-services#bg-access-restrictions)

How would you like to achieve it?

Have you considered any alternatives?
