React-native-permissions: Location permissions are not visible in app settings in iOS 12.4

[shhong7757]

Bug

I don't know English well so I use a translator. Please understand.

I am using iPhone 6 iOS 12.4.

When building with XCode, location permissions will show in app settings, but apps on test flights will not show location permissions in app settings.

Environment info

@Hatvan Did you request it first? On iOS, permissions switches ill not appear until you request them

[shhong7757]

@zoontek
thank you for the reply.
We checked the location permission first, and if it doesn't have a permission, we popped up an Alert to direct the user to the app settings

[zoontek]

@Hatvan Do you only use check? That's not enough.

[shhong7757]

@zoontek Yes I only use check because, unlike Android, when I execute the request on iOS, the permission popup does not appear.

[zoontek]

@Hatvan What status is returned by the request? (even if no popup appear)

[shhong7757]

@zoontek request return "blocked"

[zoontek]

@Hatvan Can you create a small repo with a reproductible issue?

[shhong7757]

@zoontek It's late now, so it's going to be hard right now. If you don't mind, can I upload it tomorrow?

[zoontek]

@Hatvan No problem

@zoontek request return "blocked"

I re-wrong the answer above.

When running request, iPhone 6 iOS 12.6 (connected to MacBook, built with XCode) displays a dialog normally and returns blocked on iPhone X iOS 13 (emulator).

I'll make a new repo tomorrow

Thank you.

This seems more logic to me.
On the iOS 13 simulator, you have to reset your app permission to request them again (Settings > General > Reset).

@zoontek
Thank you!!
I had been thinking for days. It is so good to solve Thanks again

I won't make a repo
