My app uses camera and photo library. I found that if a user follows certain steps, they will no longer be able to change the photo permissions for my app in the Settings app.
The steps are as follows
- Press the camera button in the app to launch the camera.
- Take a picture with camera permissions granted.
- grant ".addOnly" permission to the photo library.
- Press the photo library button in the app to read photo library.
- Deny ".readWrite" permission to the photo library.
After step 5, the Settings app only shows items to switch ".addOnly" permissions, but not ".readWrite" permissions. I am aware that in iOS14 or later, the permission required after a photo is taken with the camera should be ".addOnly". Therefore, I suspect that this problem is occurring in other apps.
So far I have devised my app to deal with this problem, but is this the expected behavior of the Settings app? If so, how can I avoid this problem?
