8**Reason for Change**
9
10According to privacy protection requirements, the location permission is added with the **Allow only while in use** option, and the **ohos.permission.LOCATION_IN_BACKGROUND** permission cannot be granted separately in a dialog box.
11
12If an application requires **ohos.permission.LOCATION_IN_BACKGROUND**, the permission must be granted by the user in **Settings**. For details, see **Adaptation Guide**.
13
14**Change Impact**
15
16Involved permissions:
17
18- Foreground location permissions (used to control the behavior of a foreground application to obtain location information):
19  - [ohos.permission.LOCATION](../../../application-dev/security/AccessToken/permissions-for-all.md#ohospermissionlocation): allows an application to obtain the precise location information of a device. This permission can be requested only after the ohos.permission.APPROXIMATELY_LOCATION permission is available.
20  - [ohos.permission.APPROXIMATELY_LOCATION](../../../application-dev/security/AccessToken/permissions-for-all.md#ohospermissionapproximately_location): allows an application to obtain approximate location information of a device.
21
22- Background location permission (used to control the behavior of a background application to obtain location information):
23
24  [ohos.permission.LOCATION_IN_BACKGROUND](../../../application-dev/security/AccessToken/permissions-for-all.md#ohospermissionlocation_in_background): allows an application running in the background to obtain device location information. This permission can be requested only after the foreground location permissions are available.
25
26The following scenarios are involved:
27
28a) The application requests only the background location permission (without the foreground location permissions).
29
30Before the change:<br>A dialog box will be displayed for granting the **ohos.permission.LOCATION_IN_BACKGROUND** permission.
31
32After the change:<br>The **ohos.permission.LOCATION_IN_BACKGROUND** permission cannot be granted by the user in a dialog box.
33
34b) The application requests only the background location permission (with the foreground location permissions available).
35
36Before the change:<br>The **ohos.permission.LOCATION_IN_BACKGROUND** permission is granted when the **ohos.permission.LOCATION** permission is granted for the first time.
37
38After the change:<br>The **ohos.permission.LOCATION_IN_BACKGROUND** permission cannot be granted by the user in a dialog box.
39
40c) The application requests both the foreground and background location permissions.
41
42Before the change:<br>A dialog box containing **Allow** and **Deny** will be displayed for granting the permissions.
43
44After the change:
45
46API 10 and earlier: A dialog box containing **Allow only while in use** and **Deny** will be displayed. If **Allow only while in use** is selected, only the **ohos.permission.LOCATION** permission is granted.
47
48API 11 and later: No dialog box will be displayed for granting the foreground and background location permissions.

1451. Request the foreground and background location permissions for your application using **requestPermissionsFromUser**.
146
147    a) Check whether the application requires the background location permission. If yes, request the foreground location permissions first.
148
149        Change:
150        atManager.requestPermissionsFromUser(context, ['ohos.permission.APPROXIMATELY_LOCATION', 'ohos.permission.LOCATION', 'ohos.permission.LOCATION_IN_BACKGROUND'], ......)
151        To:
152        atManager.requestPermissionsFromUser(context, ['ohos.permission.APPROXIMATELY_LOCATION', 'ohos.permission.LOCATION'], ......)
153
154        Or change:
155        atManager.requestPermissionsFromUser(context, ['ohos.permission.APPROXIMATELY_LOCATION', 'ohos.permission.LOCATION_IN_BACKGROUND'], ......)
156        To:
157        <br>atManager.requestPermissionsFromUser(context, ['ohos.permission.APPROXIMATELY_LOCATION'], ......).
158
159    b) After the user has granted the foreground location permissions, a dialog box is displayed, informing the user to grant the background location permission in **Settings**.
160
161    c) The user selects **Always allow** on the **Settings** screen to grant the background location permission.
162
1632. Request only the background location permission for your application using **requestPermissionsFromUser**.
164
165    a) Check whether the application requires the background location permission. If yes, request the foreground location permissions in a dialog box first.
166
167        Change:
168        atManager.requestPermissionsFromUser(context, ['ohos.permission.LOCATION_IN_BACKGROUND'], ......)
169    To:
170        atManager.requestPermissionsFromUser(context, ['ohos.permission.APPROXIMATELY_LOCATION', 'ohos.permission.LOCATION'], ......)
171
172    Or change:
173        atManager.requestPermissionsFromUser(context, ['ohos.permission.LOCATION_IN_BACKGROUND'], ......)
174        To:
175        atManager.requestPermissionsFromUser(context, ['ohos.permission.APPROXIMATELY_LOCATION'], ......).
176
177    b) See the steps in case 1.
