3.0.0: iOS 14 and Android 11 support #522

zoontek · 2020-09-26T18:57:46Z

Hi everyone 👋

As you all know, a few days ago Apple released iOS 14, and Google Android 11. This versions came with various permissions changes:

On iOS

The notion of full accuracy location (Location full accuracy (issue #489) #503)
A new AddOnly photo permission (Support iOS 14 photo permission API changes #510)
A new Limited status for PhotoLibrary permission (Support iOS 14 photo permission API changes #510)
A new Ephemeral status for Notifications permission (see Apple doc)
A new local network permission (iOS14 - Local Network permission support #509 - no API available for now 🤷‍♂️)

On Android

Google made a list: https://developer.android.com/about/versions/11/privacy/permissions
Apparently, a lot of complexity with location related permissions: iOS: Cannot request location always if we already have location when in use permission #490 (comment)
Ask every time feature ('ask every time' returns RESULT.BLOCKED #517)

TODO

More…? (I might be missing several things)

I published a first version: https://www.npmjs.com/package/react-native-permissions/v/3.0.0-beta.0
The migration guide is available here: https://github.com/zoontek/react-native-permissions/blob/3.0.0/MIGRATION.md

If you have multiple ViewControllers nested, the prompt for the LimitedLibraryPicker will not prompt on the right viewcontroller, which makes nothing actually happen. Added a quick cycler to go through the tree until it finds the top most view controller.

As pointed out by Zoontek, there is a function to find the top view controller in React Native. Importing that function, and then updated the topViewController to use that function.

Fix LimitedLibraryPicker not popping up.

Second beta is available: https://www.npmjs.com/package/react-native-permissions/v/3.0.0-beta.1
It includes this fix, by @princekurt

Hi guys, first of all thanks for this SuperLibrary :)

I am confused, may be you can help me out.

My App is targetSdkVersion = 29 and Google Console is telling us: Play Store Warning “Starting May 5th you must let us know why your app requires broad storage access”

And I have this in my manifest.xml:

  <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
  <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />

and
android:requestLegacyExternalStorage="true"

and I have this version in my project: "react-native-permissions": "^2.2.2"

So What do you recommend me to do?

Installing just "react-native-permissions": "3.0.2" will solve this google play console message?
Do I need to target to sdk 30 and add and also install "react-native-permissions": "3.0.2" ?
other approach?

Thanks @zoontek and @mikehardy :)

Matt.

mikehardy · 2021-04-22T00:38:09Z

There is lots of documentation on the google site about how to manage the transtition on that permission, and what you need to do going forward. It's far out of scope for this repository - it's a very involved subject.

You must educate yourself: https://developer.android.com/about/versions/11/privacy/storage#scoped-storage

matamicen · 2021-04-22T01:00:37Z

Yes @mikehardy you are all right. Sorry to ask here, it is out of scope.

The thing is I migrate to API 30 and everything is working in the APP and I didn't upgrade to react-native-permissions": "3.0.0" ... I am still using 2.2.2 and it saves videos to the external storage in Android 11 with the version 2.2.2 permission without any problem. Do I miss something?

Sorry & Thanks again!
Matt.

mikehardy · 2021-04-22T01:28:29Z

You must read the documents

The library asks the permission the same. The permission is the same name. The platform is ignoring a flag on 11. The review will disallow it soon unless your app actually needs it. All in the docs.

matamicen · 2021-04-22T15:51:48Z

Thanks @mikehardy :)

ghost · 2021-04-28T07:43:37Z

@matamicen did you find any solution for this ?
Please share with me.
For non English speaker it is a little hard to understand what actually google want and what to do before may 5

Hi guys, are we planning on crossing out the last two items on TODO list? @zoontek

zoontek · 2021-09-15T07:44:10Z

@tungduonghgg123 Supporting Ask next time feature is currently not possible on Android as the OS permission system is broken.

The choice has been made to fix this issue instead: facebook/react-native#30158 (read the comments), which was considered more problematic then supporting "Ask next time". If Google fix Android one day, we will remove the SharedPreferences and support it.

satya-imaginea · 2022-02-01T13:07:40Z

I am using "react-native-permissions": "^3.2.0", but still getting RESULT.BLOCKED status in android device if I select "Ask every time"

zoontek · 2022-02-01T14:24:53Z

@satya-imaginea It can't be done because of facebook/react-native#30158. Android permission system is currently broken.
