Is there's a way to Reset the Permissions that I’ve already chosen?
I have denied the permission for notifications for some tests, and now I want to ask for notification permission again.
Is that possible?
I’m using the app on Expo app emulator on iOS.
**Update: I found a way by uninstalling Expo app, then reinstall it back, but it's not practical.
The best option without reinstalling in this case is to access the "Settings" menu in the phone/emulator you are using.
You should have an "Expo" item on which permissions ares shown
Example permissions menu for Expo:

while testing i noticed one interesting thing,I’m using Microphone ,location, camera Permissions in my app and asking for permissions from a user. When i install app for first time i sees default asking permissions pop up. And everything work fine. But if i will remove app from phone and install it again and again the permissions popups wont appear , but all working fine. if i visit app settings all permissions are granted already(which was given in last installation).
is this happen because of cache issues?. and how to resolve this issue ?
We Added the ATT(App Tracking Transparency) into our latest Application release, and everything worked fine except for one thing.
When our users try to download the application in the App Store through the Apple Ad specifically, the ATT permission isn't prompting and the data tracking permission is set to disabled by default.
When we try to download on the same device not through the Apple Ad, when we ran the application we see the ATT permission when we launch the application
If anyone has any input or value to add for this issue it will be very helpful and appreciated.
iOS seems to cache the ATT permission for a while.
Try to restart your iOS device after the app was installed via "apple ads click" and then removed.
After the reboot of your iOS device and installing the app from app store the permission prompt should appear.
My permission appears again after I restart my device as #Jochen Holzer suggested.
Note: The permission always appear after uninstall > install in my colleague, but restarting the device is needed in my case. I assume that we have different version. Mine is 14.4 and hers is 14.1
want to upvote his answer but I lack of point
What are some possible reasons that UNUserNotificationCenter.current().requestAuthorization might not prompt?
I have some users that are not receiving the prompt for permission at all. I've even tried to change the app bundle Id in TestFlight to see if they would get the prompt but to no avail.
I've tried resetting permission via https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/technotes/tn2265/_index.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/DTS40010376-CH1-TNTAG42 as well.
Notification permission settings does not get listed within the app settings on iOS which leads me to believe it isn't necessarily rejected.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I don't think this is a code issue as the call is fairly straightforward.
Asking for provisional permissions causes the permission prompt for notifications not to show on iOS < 12.
If the user has rejected the permission for your app before, then the dialog won't show either.
Even though the problem was caused by something silly; I think it would still be worthwhile to share the problem resolution.
We have a WK WebView iOS app. On our Angular side, we try to detect whether or not the environment is currently iOS native app before trying to prompt the user for permission. We do this detection by setting a flag in local storage (I don't really have all the details as it is not my code - I'm just the reviewer). Between the loading of the native app, the WebView and angular code, we couldn't reliably ensure that things are handled synchronously.
The detection failed - so we never prompt the user.
Thanks again for the help.
I'm working on an iOs app written in Swift with a Camera view controller. The first time I launched this view controller, the permission dialog was shown and I allowed the access to the camera and to the photo library. However, I noticed an issue while allowing the library permission and I would like to be able to reproduce it in order to fix it... But to do that, I need to re-show this permission dialog. However, even if I delete the app and reinstall it, I never get this permission dialog again.
How to get it again so I can fix my issue?
There is no perfect solution
The recommended way is go to "Settings" app
(General > Reset > Reset Location & Privacy).
But as you say, it resets all the apps.
Another option is to change the bundle identifier of the app, so it's considered a new app and it will ask again.
The third option is to delete the app, change your device time for more than 24 hours forward, turn the device off and turn it on again.
I'm not certain that it works in iOS 9, but in iOS 8 the system expired the privacy settings once the application had been uninstalled for 24 hours. You could simulate it by removing the application, moving time ahead a day in Settings and then reinstalling the application.
There's also Reset Location & Privacy, but that's a global reset.
You can go in Settings -> Privacy -> Camera and disable your app.
If you're jailbroken, you can run these shell commands on the device to reset all the permissions dialogs for just your app:
export bundleIdentifier="com.yourcompany.product"
sqlite3 /private/var/mobile/Library/TCC/TCC.db "DELETE FROM access WHERE client = '${bundleIdentifier}'"
Usually, I was able to test different flows for mic / push permission on iOS by deleting the app and then launching again from XCode. However, recently I am unable to do so because even after deleting the app, when I relaunch the app, instead of asking for permission, it somehow brings back the permissions that I had given to the deleted app. This means it is impossible for me to test alternate flows for asking permission. Has anyone else faced this problem? Can someone guide me to getting back to being asked for permission?
