Ngx-scanner: Camera Permission on devices aksed every page reload

[ilellouch]

Hello,

I've integrated this component (Thanks) and what I see today is :

• On Desktop, permission is asked first time, then camera is working after each reload
• On mobile (I'm testing with Iphone SE, IOS 11 on Safari), everytime I'm reloading the page, same question over again "asking for permission".
  Don't really know if it's a ngx-scanner question or a "permission handling by browser" question. Sorry if I'm mistaken.

Thanks
Ivan

Different devices (browser) have some different behaviors. e.g.: Samsung Internet Browser asks for permissions everytime you choose a different camera. Chrome Browser in most Androids asks just the first time. Also, things use to work different from localhost to a https environment.

This is a difficult thing to track, so I will not close until @werthdavid gives his point.

Thanks for reporting. 😁

I did some research and it seems that you can't prevent Mobile Safari from asking, sorry for that.

But: iOS 11.3 has several changes regarding WebRTC, maybe the behavior changed there. I'll close the issue

Try to turn off livereload
