Android allows some apps to give users an option to track them at all times - Google Maps is an example.

AirBNB currently doesn't even have this option. Maybe they're planning on adding it.

When an app asks for your location - it has to give you all options - usually only 2: "only in app" and "never".

There is a third: "always". It won't default to "always". So the user has to pick it.

Zillow has this as an option - so I imagine the Play Store would let AirBNB add this option.
