Nike App Permissions Explained
App permissions look intrusive, but most have a clear purpose. Here is what Nike uses each one for and which are optional.
Notifications
For order updates, delivery alerts, and promotions. Allow order categories; deny marketing if you prefer.
Camera
For product barcode scanning, visual search, and ID upload during seller signup. Deny if you do not use these features.
Location
For nearby pickup, store finder, and delivery estimates. Deny safely; you can enter addresses manually.
Contacts
For gifting and address book sync. Always deny if not needed.
Frequently asked questions
Can I change permissions later?
Yes, in your phone's app settings.
Why does the app keep re-asking?
After major updates it may re-prompt. Decline again if you do not want to grant.
