app "wants additional access to your Google Account"

See original GitHub issue

Hi folks

Can someone explain to me why it asks for “additional access”, if I’m only requesting the user e-mail and profile?

Is there a way to remove this message? I already received a 1-star review on google play because of it. Some paranoid users think that my app is “suspicious” because of that, but I’m only getting user name/email to create their accounts.

capacitor.config.json

  "GoogleAuth": {
      "scopes": ["profile", "email"],
      ...

EDIT: I tried removing the profile scope but it doesn’t work at all

@jonit-dev fyi After I wasted days of investigation, I removed CodetrixStudio/CapacitorGoogleAuth and installed @ionic-native/google-plus, which works fine (with the same OAuth consent screen configuration, clientID and scopes) it doesn’t show the “untrusted” screen

thanks, switch to use this plugin instead fixes the problem 👍
