Comment on The right way to ask users for iOS permissionsparent

Comments

Facebook Messenger does it every time you go to the App, it's very annoying. It definitely makes me use it less. I don't think Apps should be aware if they have had permissions denied, functions should just quietly return nothing/false data.

Older versions of Messenger even complained if you allowed it to send push notifications, but disabled the notification sound.

This isn't the iOS prompt, however, which can only appear once.

Google Location Services does it every time you turn on GPS on a Kitkat android phone, if you've turned their location services permission off.
