In a statement to Variety, MoviePass explained that users have the ability to choose how much location data the app files away.
Today, MoviePass released a new app update, including the removal of some unused app location capabilities.
A March 7 iOS update for the app has now “removed unused app location capability” to disable the geo-tracking feature.
After swift backlash from users who preferred their movie ticket apps not to have leapt from the pages of a George Orwell novel, MoviePass has quietly disabled the tracking feature.
