More background services would be very nice even though it's a bit of a security nightmare. A request was opened almost 5 years ago for background geolocation services.

Any plans for https://developers.google.com/nearby ?

I don't want Google or central authorities to decide which PWAs are "trustworthy" directly to ask for certain permissions but there could be a way or compromise. I don't remember which feature it was but it required yes from Google.

I really want the first screen after installing PWAs to be their privacy policy or detailing which permissions/how they use them. It should be mandatory and important or may show a default screen with permissions and few dangerous ways they can be used for.
