There should be an App Store rule that you can only ask for a permission once, if the user declines you can't keep pestering for it unless they've actually invoked an action that requires the permission.
- simongr3dal 8y agoOn iOS, apps can only activate the system dialog for permissions once for each individual permission (camera, microphone, contacts, etc.) So the strategy to do is to say yes for the app to ask permission and when the system dialog shows up you can decline. If you ignore or say no to the app dialog they can keep pestering you, but once you have declined on the system dialog there's not much the app can do. The apps have to instruct you to go into the app settings if you want to activate permissions, not a lot of apps are doing this since it's quite an involved process.
