the app developer needs to write their app appropriately so that it'll request access, then be populated in that list.

You could try deleting and re-downloading the app and see if it prompts you.

Or you could poke around in the app's settings and see if there is a switch to flip that prompts you to grant access.

Otherwise you may have to contact the app developer

Hi thanks for helping me. I already deleted the app and reloaded. I also reset the privacy and location services. I wouldn't know about the app developer issue because it used to be there and worked properly. But all of the sudden stoped. I can't tell if it was an iOS update or an app update but it disappear from location services and the gps stop working. I also have a friend than has the same iOS version 15.1.1 and the same app and it does appear on his location Services. Im guesing is a software or divice error i have and i am open to suggestions ...
