AIR iOS: Check permissions?

Hi,

Is it possible to check if a user allowed access to the "camera roll" in an iOS 8 AIR app?

(the app needs the permission to let users load an image from the devices camera roll)

Thanks

Is there any workaround available at the moment? Maybe something like a timer or error message that gets triggered if nothing happens because of the missing permission?

You can listen for an error event:

myCameraRoll.addEventListener(ErrorEvent.ERROR, saveToCamRollErr);

function saveToCamRollErr(e:ErrorEvent):void{

     // Show a message like"If you want to save pictures from this app to the camera roll you need to enable it in the Settings > Privacy > Photos > NameOfApp"

}
