Does Cirqa require always sharing location data (iOS)?

Got my Cirqa yesterday and absolutely love the form factor, it will complement when I don’t want to wear my Fenix really well.

One thing I noticed right away is Garmin Connect keeps notifying/asking me to update my location settings in iOS.

It seems like it requires always sharing location data, where as before I only had it set to “when app is open”. I have typically avoided the “always” setting in other apps to avoid iPhone battery drain.

Has anyone else noticed this? Note that I am running iOS 27 Public Beta 2.
