It's the same with LG TVs. The remote app on iOS for my 2018 LG OLED TV does not launch without granting it location access. I don't understand why a TV remote app would ever need location access?

Don't bring up a BLE packet sniffer around a LG soundbar, it's spamming about 10 UUID packets per second. Pretty annoying.

I thought apple didn't allow that.

Yesterday, the app refused to even start up until I updated it to the latest version.

That's really disappointing as LG has been my go to brand for many of my appliance purchases including a washer and dryer a few years ago.

Do you HAVE to use the app to use the machine though? Can you just not enable wifi on itand use it like a dumb washer?

The washer absolutely works without the app.
The app provides some benefits, but they're not required.
