I have a simple code that request access to contacts
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
fetchContacts()
}
func fetchContacts()
{
let allowedCharset = CharacterSet
.decimalDigits
let store = CNContactStore()
store.requestAccess(for: .contacts) { (granted, err) in
if let error = err
{
print("failed to access",error)
return
}
if (granted)
{
///// after we get access to fetch contacts //// we reload table view data ///
print("access granted")
let keys = [CNContactGivenNameKey,CNContactPhoneNumbersKey,CNContactFamilyNameKey,CNContactMiddleNameKey]
let request = CNContactFetchRequest(keysToFetch: keys as [CNKeyDescriptor])
do {
try store.enumerateContacts(with: request, usingBlock: { (contact, stopPointerIfYouWantToStopEnumerating) in
let array = contact.phoneNumbers
for number in array
{
let fullName = contact.givenName + contact.middleName
let lastName = contact.familyName
let value = number.value.stringValue
let number = String(value.unicodeScalars.filter(allowedCharset.contains))
print (number)
/////////// 4 cases we just need the phone not to be zero ///////
if (fullName != "SPAM")
{
self.firstName.append(fullName)
self.lastName.append(lastName)
self.numberArray.append(number)
}
}
})
//self.table()
}
catch let err2 {
print ("failer to enurmerate",err2)
}
}
}
}
This code works fine on simulator. When I delete app on the simulator and clean then build and run the app again it works fine a popup view appears with permissions request, however on real device it works the permissions pops the first time when I delete the app from the phone and clean then build and run I dont receive the pop permission request again
When you delete an app the iOS keeps the permissions for a day for bundle identifier if you want to remove it in the same date you have a three options
Click here the apple docs reference that i take the screenshot form it also you can check it.
