Logos on Android should not need location -- GPS is draining battery

Why on earth should a Bible program care where on earth I'm located? This strikes me as weird.

In the Google Play store, it says, "ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION—for finding nearby Proclaim presentations." But I don't use Proclaim; and my guess is that the vast majority of Logos users don't use Proclaim either. Everyone needs the Bible; very few people need to prepare presentations for worship.

At the very least, this should be an option which users can turn on or off.

Yes, I know that I can turn GPS on or off. In my setup, GPS is permanently turned on, since GPS has the wonderful feature that it actually uses power only when a location app is running. Logos messes with that wonderfulness by unnecessarily asking for location. STOP IT!
