Basic Information

Device type: emulator
OS version: Android 12
EasyPermissions version: 3.0.0

Describe the problem

  1. App request both ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION and ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION
    -- As instructed in https://developer.android.com/training/location/permissions#approximate-request
  2. User grants access to approximate location
  3. EasyPermission library returns ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION as denied permission
  4. EasyPermissions.permissionPermanentlyDenied(ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION) returns true

What happened? What did you expect to happen?

ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION is determined as permanently denied immediately after first permission dialog. This is incorrect because app can request location permissions again (next time system asks user to upgrade from approximate to precise location).

With Android 12 location permissions and EasyPermissions lib 3.0.0 I could not find a reliable way to determine when to show AppSettingsDialog (i.e. when permission is actually permanently denied and system returns result without displaying a dialog).

Code and logs

I can add later if needed.
