Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION is the String constant in the Manifest.permission class that grants an app permission to access an approximate location using the network or cell tower location. ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION, on the other hand, grants an app permission to access precise location using GPS. Since the question specifically asks for an approximate location, the correct answer is ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION (A). ACCESS_PRECISE_LOCATION and ACCESS_CLOSE_LOCATION are not valid String constants in the Manifest.permission class.
