Android app 10.0.2 fails to enable continuous sending because "Permissions denied"

My Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra updated to 10.0.2 today and now I cannot enable the "Continuous tracking" toggle. If I press "Send location", it succeeds and everything works as it should. However, when I try to enable continuous, I get "Permission denied" even though all the permissions are correct (and working if I manually send). Here is a raw log of 1) Open app 2) Try to toggle continuous 3) Send location 4) Try to toggle again:

2026-07-07 19:14:45 Permissions denied
2026-07-07 19:14:54 Position requested
2026-07-07 19:14:54 Position fetched XX.6994169,-XX.5082905
2026-07-07 19:14:54 Upload response 200
2026-07-07 19:15:00 Permissions denied

I found no combination of settings that would allow this to work - I cleared cache and restarted my self-hosted server as well just for the fun of it, but as expected, it didn't affect the situation.

Ideas? Thanks in advance!

What permissions are enabled?

You're missing notifications permission.

That does work fix the issue, however notification permission wasn't required before. I prefer it off since it constantly displays the tracking notification.

Will make it more relaxed in the next version, but disabling notifications will make the app extremely unreliable.

Same here, Samsung Galaxy S23 and S22, latest updates (Client 10.0.2).
"Failed to start tracking. Check location permissions."
A manual status-update works.

Permissions exactly the same as Ryan, never had "Notifications" on. Tried, but NULL effect regarding this problem.

EDIT: Enabling the "notification"-permission form the "main"-page works, made position updates working again. But now I have a ulgy • (big white dot) on top of my status bar.

Thanks Anton, have no problem enabling the notification permission but if we could make it less noisy that'd be huge plus!

Yeah, something must have been changed with 10.0.2, because everything worked before with my settings (notifications off). And the app itself does not ask to enable notfications. So this behaviour is (imho) very error-prone.
