Why does Wizard Unite need to have access to write to my health data in IOS? It should only need to read steps and walking+running distance. Seems like they have over reached on the access required.
Your steps/distance travelled is through the Health app in iOS. Therefore, the game wouldn’t be able to read those things without given access to the Health app.
I think the complaint wasn't "access" but "write access", and I agree: can't come up with a scenario that would require HPWU to write data to the health app (but then again, I have no idea how either of these work on a technical level)
Aahhhhh I see. My mistake. Now I understand. Yeah now seeing it this way I agree. Why do they need to write data? Can anyone explain this from a technical level (but in layman’s terms)?
