Why "always on" about my location – My Nearest Places Review

I like the idea of using an app offering me restaurant, cafe,... names. However, I want to keep my privacy as well. Why does this app have to know always where I am. Why do I have not an option to let it work once I activate the app or by manually typing in the city, town name for the app to offer me the places it contains... I hate the Big Brother watching us continuously
