Well, yes there is: I don't have carte blanche to do whatever I want with your data because you tapped an Apple dialog: I have to obtain your consent first.
- benmanns 2y agoThis is interesting to me—are you an app developer that does this pattern for that reason? I definitely figured it was exclusively because they can request repeatedly for the fake prompt, and only “use” their prompt when the user is inclined to accept. There are times where I’ll accept the first prompt and reject the second prompt when apps are spammy about it.
- kemayo 2y agoI don't see why that matters? Your app triggered the Apple dialog to be shown, asking a question about what your app is allowed to do, and you can see what the answer the user gave is. Why wouldn't that be enough?
