That’s app Review, which is different, but may catch this sort of thing....

This report is the more once you grant an app permission, for any reason it keeps those permissions indefinitely unless you manually go into the global settings firm and turn them off..

Android behaves the same way, once permission has been granted.

They are suggesting that there be some sort of reaffirmation of permission to use , rather than just a one time thing.

Question is: under what condition should iOS request re-affirmation? offhand (as an app developer) I don’t see what would prompt that, and I see arbitrary re-affirmation requests as annoying to users. If the app is trustworthy, there’s no reason to keep asking; if the app _isn’t_ trustworthy, I shouldn’t run it.
