             Summary: clarify "just in time" recommendation in README
                 Key: CB-13207
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-13207
             Project: Apache Cordova
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: cordova-plugin-geolocation
            Reporter: Josh Sharpe


The README states: 'Therefore, in addition to the app's privacy policy, you 
should strongly consider providing a *just-in-time notice* before the app 
accesses geolocation data (if the device operating system doesn't do so 
already).'

It seems that all the methods exposed on this plugin trigger the native 
permission dialog on iOS. So, there's no way to check that the permission has 
been enabled or not - which would inform whether or not to show a "just in 
time" notice.

The only real possibility is to show this "just in time" notice before every 
use of this plugin -- which makes no sense in the case where the user has 
already granted permission.

Does it make sense to add some functionality that simply checks if the 
permission has been granted?  This method would *never* trigger the native 
dialog.
