Thanks for your feedback! We don't currently have an option to disable this feature, and adding this feature is not on our to-do list, but we appreciate your suggestion and will make sure to pass your feedback to our product team for consideration. Thank you! - CANDY HOUSE

Currently, the Android app displays an error message and exits if the user refuses to grant location access (needed for Bluetooth and auto-unlock). Wi-Fi only use would be greatly improved if the app would continue running instead of exiting.

Understood, and we appreciate the feedback! We'll pass it to our dev team as well. We've been hesitant to alter the auto-Bluetooth this feature because we've had users in the past leave Bluetooth off and then wonder why auto-unlock or lock/unlock wasn't working, but we'll definitely consider this issue further now that more and more users are relying on the Wi-Fi Access Point instead of Bluetooth.
