Android Geolocation data access multiple requests

[JeromeMartinez]

From a Google Play comment:

"Maybe add a option to stop the nagging about "Geolocation data access" without having to give you the information?? There is not a single reason you need to ask for that information everytime I open a audio file."

or

"Is it possible that every time you try to activate GPS, you have to be asked to do so?"

If a user does not like to have all information, why not, maybe we accept the "no" forever after 1 or 2 attempts and we have the option only in the preferences.

I agree. That continuous request for active GPS is truly unbearable.

The permission is so that MediaInfo has full access to the actual file contents to show accurate metadata. That's how it has always worked before Google implemented the geolocation filtering to the system file picker as well. If some users insist on denying the access then maybe only ask once then after that just show a toast or something when opening a file to remind the user that the file metadata displayed may not fully represent what the file actually contains without that permission. Or just don't show anything and let the user forget that the permission was denied before and user may use MediaInfo to check a file's metadata and assume a file does not contain geolocation data and is safe to be shared when in fact it contains GPS coordinates but is filtered when opened by MediaInfo due to lack of that permission. Or user may forget it was denied then make a report that MediaInfo does not show geolocation tags on Android.
