I can not set the iOS MicroPhone permission with AIR SDK 24 or higher.

Report · May 14, 2018

I am using AIR 23 and are working on solutions in relation to the following two articles.

Adobe Air SDK 29 is not accepted by Apple

The application was rejected from the APP store yesterday.

Unable to set iOS camera permissions with AIR SDK 24

Camera permissions could be solved in the following way.

12/13/2016 - Release - AIR 24 Runtime and SDK

cam.requestPermission();

However, setting microphone permissions tried up to AIR 24-29, but it does not work.

mic.requestPermission();

I also tested AIR 30 Beta, but it was useless.

The iOS application terminates abnormally with this description.

It seems to be supported by third party ANE, but is there a function with AIR standard ?

Hi,

Can you please make sure you're using cocoa key NSMicrophoneUsageDescription with AIR 30 in you application descriptor as:

Hi

>Can you please make sure you're using cocoa key NSMicrophoneUsageDescription with AIR 30 in you application descriptor

I tried it.

The microphone request Permission dialog is not displayed and cannot be attached.

I am testing it with simple sample code.(Animate CC 2015 Air 30+iPad OS 10.0.2 or iphone6 11.3.1)

Animate emulator will work without problems.

When you publish an application to the test device, the microphone does not recognize it.
Disabling "microphone" will work.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi,

From the code you've attached, mic.requestPermission() is missing. Add this line to your code and let us know if you still face issues.

Thank you for quick answer.

Great!
As you said, I added a source as below and it worked.

Action Script modification from AIR 23 to AIR 30 seems to be OK.

One problem was found.

*Animate CC 2015 Air 30+iPad OS 10.0.2

The application icon is displayed on the test device. Camera and microphone were detected.

*Animate CC 2015 Air 30+iPhone OS 11.3.1

The application icon does not appear on the test device. Camera and microphone have been detected.

Application icon does not display properly on test device iOS 11.3.1. Will this be fixed in the future?

Hi,

For icons to be visible on iOS 11 and above, you need to package Assets.car along with the application descriptor and swf as any other resource. For details on creating Assets.car, please refer Release Notes Flash Player 28 AIR 28.

Thanks!

The icon of iOS 11 was solved.

The camera and microphone permissions are resolved.

This time, I have trouble with Geolocation's permission.

Added the following to InfoAdditions of app.xml.

<key>NSLocationWhenInUseUsageDescription</key>

<string>You need GPS permission to display location information on the map.</string>

geo_location.requestPermission does not work.

Please look at the Sample Code.

geo_location.locationAlwaysUsePermission=false;

I set to use GPS when using the application.

It seems that it was added from AIR 29, but is there any problem?

However, the defined character string is not displayed.

There is no change in behavior.

Hi

If I still confirm that this problem has been solved

NSLocationWhenInUseUsageDescription and NSLocationAlwaysAndWhenInUseUsageDescription By writing two,it works with ios12.1.

Was it necessary for Apple to let them choose two?

<key>NSLocationWhenInUseUsageDescription</key>

<string>You need GPS permission to display location information on the map.</string>

<key>NSLocationAlwaysAndWhenInUseUsageDescription</key>

<string>You need GPS permission to display location information on the map.</string>

I have an app that is calling Microphone.requestPermission, and the alert is never shown.

The permission status callback handler is called and the status is "denied".

We also define this key in our info.plist:

key>NSMicrophoneUsageDescription</key>

<string>iRead requires microphone access to record students reading.</string>

Must I use the ANE above?

I am currently using AIR 31.

Report · Mar 29, 2019

I don't know how that works with microphones, but for notifications on iOS, if the user rejects to give the permission the first time he was asked, you can not show the popup again. The only way to enable notifications is then to tell the user to go to system settings and give the permission there. Apple will only show the popup once, not the second or third time you ask the user. Maybe it is similar with the microphone permission?

Report · Mar 29, 2019

In my case, the alert has *never* been shown.

I'm trying to determine how to get it to be shown ever.

Apparently, it should be shown the first time we get requestPermission().

Report · Apr 01, 2019

My problem (with seeing the Microphone permission alert) was solved. I had misplaced my addition of NSMicrophoneUsageDescription in info.plist as part of another embedded dictionary (NSAppTransportSecurity) instead of being part of the top-level list of keys/values.
