It’s part of the API: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/contacts/cnauthorizationstatus/limited https://developer.apple.com/documentation/contacts/cnauthori... The documentation for ContactAccessButton suggests only presenting it if you have limited access: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/contactsui/contactaccessbutton https://developer.apple.com/documentation/contactsui/contact... edit: but that’s intended to be used specifically to respond to a contact search. I don’t use WhatsApp, but a “persistent notification” sounds unrelated to ContactAccessButton.
