I have an exercise app that I use to track bike rides. My frequency of riding dips quite a bit in the fall and recently that app was categorized by my phone as unused and deep sleep. I was able to tell my phone "no" on the deep sleep but when I turned location back on it only let's me choose "allowed only while in use". This is a problem because rides usually last longer than an hour and my phone is in my pocket the whole time, screen locked. How can I allow this app to use my location all of the time?

It would ultimately be up to the developer of the app in question to add this option.

I never checked it before that, the app just worked. I think the app needs location in the background which is where I am getting stuck. Do you know where the settings for background function are? Thank you for the help
