Hello,

Is there a way to disable MSL notification in Android 8.0 ? Since last update v 63.0.2 it's always there and it's annoying... I looked at https://support.mozilla.org/fr/kb/mozilla-location-service-firefox-android but I don't want to neither disable all notifications, nor disable MSL.

Thanks in advance for your help !

As far as I know there is not a way to disable the notification short of not participating in the Mozilla location service scanning. The behavior change is a requirement from Google that background services must have a notification.
