Short explanation:
- this app will probably work on your Android 6 device without LOCATION need

Full explanation:
- apps made on Google Development Kit for Android 6 (SDK 23 - recommended by Google) requires LOCATION
- apps made on older development kit (for example Android 5 - SDK 22) are still functional in compatibility mode without LOCATION need (mostly)
- google play blocks any downgrade for apps made on SDK 23 to lower (SDK 22)
- original app (functionality for now very same) made on recommended SDK 23 with 1M+ downloads here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=cz.webprovider.wifianalyzer
- both version of this one app will remain active - I don't know how long will be this "older SDK" version works, could be years

Some info about this new terribly feature written on Google's official Android website:
http://developer.android.com/about/versions/marshmallow/android-6.0-changes.html#behavior-hardware-id

- Helps to find optimal placement for wifi receivers
- Provides you information individualy on wifi channels
- Shows signal strength in history graph
- Recommends the best channel for new AP
- Information of the channel width (20/40/80MHz - only Android 6+)
3.61 - Due to Google Play restrictions, can't do downgrade from newer software development kit (23 to 22) is only possible way to create new app (recommended by support). This app will not require LOCATION on Android 6 devices (possibly). Which was added in SDK 23 - http://developer.android.com/about/versions/marshmallow/android-6.0-changes.html#behavior-hardware-id - this version will not be updated to SDK>22 unless google cut off SDK 22 from google play.
