Babette Stam updated CB-13680:
------------------------------
    Description: 
When you want to request the always access location permissions the newer iOS 
version requires that the NSLocationAlwaysUsageDescription and 
NSLocationWhenInUseUsageDescription are both set. It is not allowed to only set 
the NSLocationAlwaysUsageDescription anymore.

But in the Cordova code there is a check that when you have the 
NSLocationWhenInUseUsageDescription set, the application will only ask the user 
permission to use the location in app usage (requestWhenInUseAuthorization). It 
will run the requestAlwaysAuthorization.

I saw a different issue reported 2 years ago with the question reversed 
(CB-8826). This was then implemented, but is not working with the latest 
version. The following code should be edited:


{code:javascript}

#ifdef __IPHONE_8_0
    NSUInteger code = [CLLocationManager authorizationStatus];
    if (code == kCLAuthorizationStatusNotDetermined && ([self.locationManager 
respondsToSelector:@selector(requestAlwaysAuthorization)] || 
[self.locationManager 
respondsToSelector:@selector(requestWhenInUseAuthorization)])) { //iOS8+
        __highAccuracyEnabled = enableHighAccuracy;
        if([[NSBundle mainBundle] 
objectForInfoDictionaryKey:@"NSLocationWhenInUseUsageDescription"]){
            [self.locationManager requestWhenInUseAuthorization];
        } else if([[NSBundle mainBundle] 
objectForInfoDictionaryKey:@"NSLocationAlwaysUsageDescription"]) {
            [self.locationManager  requestAlwaysAuthorization];
        } else {
            NSLog(@"[Warning] No NSLocationAlwaysUsageDescription or 
NSLocationWhenInUseUsageDescription key is defined in the Info.plist file.");
        }
        return;
    }
#endif

{code}

It should be: 

{code:javascript}

#ifdef __IPHONE_8_0
    NSUInteger code = [CLLocationManager authorizationStatus];
    if (code == kCLAuthorizationStatusNotDetermined && ([self.locationManager 
respondsToSelector:@selector(requestAlwaysAuthorization)] || 
[self.locationManager 
respondsToSelector:@selector(requestWhenInUseAuthorization)])) { //iOS8+
        __highAccuracyEnabled = enableHighAccuracy;
        if([[NSBundle mainBundle] 
objectForInfoDictionaryKey:@"NSLocationAlwaysUsageDescription"]) {
            [self.locationManager  requestAlwaysAuthorization];
        } else if([[NSBundle mainBundle] 
objectForInfoDictionaryKey:@"NSLocationWhenInUseUsageDescription"]){
            [self.locationManager requestWhenInUseAuthorization];
        } else {
            NSLog(@"[Warning] No NSLocationAlwaysUsageDescription or

        }
        return;
    }
