iOS: isAuthorized does not work

[m-ruhl]

Hello,

I was trying to see if the user, has given the app the permissions..

I think the wrong method is used:

react-native-fitness/ios/RCTFitness/RCTFitness.m

Line 133 in 3fdf681

[self.healthStore getRequestStatusForAuthorizationToShareTypes: sharePerms readTypes: readPerms completion:^(HKAuthorizationRequestStatus status, NSError *error) {

Because HKAuthorizationRequestStatus is compared against HKAuthorizationStatus
https://developer.apple.com/documentation/healthkit/hkauthorizationrequeststatus?language=objc

This method to my understanding only returns, if a popup will appear on requesting the permission, but won't tell if the app is authorised or not.

I think this method, is the right one https://developer.apple.com/documentation/healthkit/hkhealthstore/1614154-authorizationstatus
But as the documentation states.. it will only work on write not for read

hello @m-ruhl, did you find any solution for this issue ?

Having the same issue. Once the pop up is shown, the isAuthorized method will always return true even if the user has denied those permissions

[darrenmerrett]

This is in the docs...

Fitness.requestPermissions([{ kind: int, access: int }]) Ask permission and return if user granted or not(Android), while, due to Apple's privacy model, always true is returned in iOS.
