Android Physical Activity Permissions
I recently updated my the firmware for the Tailwind as requested in an email from you. However now my android app is requesting permission for my physical activity in addition to my location now. I understand that the location always on permission is needed for the auto open/close feature, but why now do you need my physical activity?
If I deny permission to the physical activity, Tailwind complains that it needs permission for location; however it has permission to location.
From my understanding, physical activity permissions include
-Android Step Counter
-Activity Recognition API
-Google Fit Recording API or History API
Why do you need that information?

Hi Ben,
We need it for the Activity Recognition API. That API indicates when you're driving a vehicle and is used to aid in the auto-open feature. That's all it is used for.
