Incorrect App Permission I Want Removed

Hi all, very beginner here.

I am trying to release my app for testing on Android, but I have this warning:

“Your app uses the android.permission.ACTIVITY_RECOGNITION permission and must meet Health apps policy requirements. If you don’t have any health features in your app, remove this permission from your app’s manifest.”

My app is not a health app - it is a music festival app, so I am not sure what part of the app would have triggered that permission. The Google Play Store is saying I should remove that permission, but I am not seeing how to do that. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I know this issue as this is Happening with New Apps, you Can give No Health Data is Collected in the Form tho if this option is Available…

Thanks, which form do you mean?

I mean the Health and Fitness Part of the Data Safety Form

Oh yeah, there is no option for that. I can only choose various health app features. I am not sure how to remove the permission from my app’s manifest.

I think so that you should post on Play Console Community, there are Very Responsive (if you choose good tags)

Good call, thank you!
