Question 1

How to request camera permission with PermissionsKit in Swift?

Accepted Answer

Import the CameraPermission module and use Permission.camera.request() with a completion handler. The README provides code snippets for notification permission that can be adapted, ensuring you add the NSCameraUsageDescription key to Info.plist.

Question 2

PermissionsKit vs native Swift permission handling: which is better?

Accepted Answer

PermissionsKit offers a unified API and reduces boilerplate, making it ideal for apps with multiple permissions. However, for simple, single-permission apps, native APIs like AVFoundation might provide more control and avoid dependency overhead.

Question 3

Does PermissionsKit work with HealthKit permissions on watchOS?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the README lists Health permission and supports multiple platforms including watchOS, so it can handle HealthKit permissions across Apple devices, but ensure you import the HealthPermission module specifically.

Question 4

How to add PermissionsKit to an Xcode project using Swift Package Manager?

Accepted Answer

In Xcode, go to Package Dependencies, add the GitHub URL, and select only the necessary permission modules during import to prevent App Store review issues, as recommended in the installation guide.

Question 5

Can I localize permission description texts with PermissionsKit?

Accepted Answer

Yes, use the provided usageDescriptionKey to set localized strings in Info.plist or create InfoPlist.strings files, as explained in the localization section, ensuring compliance with Apple's guidelines.

Question 6

What permissions are missing in PermissionsKit that I might need?

Accepted Answer

It covers 16+ common permissions, but for newer or less common ones like App Tracking Transparency post-iOS 14, check the README table—some might require native integration if not listed.
