Question

The location doesn’t have to be precise,
it is sufficient to get location previously fetched.
and several kilometer error is fine.

I suspect this is violation of policy
But no harm to ask I guess

If there’s no legit way of obtaining location without pop up,
how long does it take to get a location with accuracy of several kilometers

Thank you

From apple’s documentation

Important: In addition to hardware not
being available, the user has the
option of denying an application’s
access to location service data.
During its initial uses by an
application, the Core Location
framework prompts the user to confirm
that using the location service is
acceptable. If the user denies the
request, the CLLocationManager object
reports an appropriate error to its
delegate during future requests. You
can also check the application’s
explicit authorization status using
the authorizationStatus method.

Apple won’t allow usage of CoreLocation framework without user accepting it. This thread might interest you
