[Bug]: CalendarFullAccess status is always denied in iOS 17+ #1306

viplavrawal · 2024-04-12T07:20:20Z

Please check the following before submitting a new issue.

I have searched the existing issues.
I have carefully read the documentation and verified I have added the required platform specific configuration.

Please select affected platform(s)

Android
iOS
Windows

Steps to reproduce

Use await Permission.calendarFullAccess.request(); to get calendar permission.
Check await Permission.calendarFullAccess.status;

Expected results

await Permission.calendarFullAccess.status; should return granted when permission is granted by user.

Actual results

await Permission.calendarFullAccess.status; returns denied.

The result is the same even if the user permanently denies the permission.

Code sample

await Permission.calendarFullAccess.request();

// On next app run or on another page
final status = await Permission.calendarFullAccess.status;
if (status == PermissionStatus.permanentlyDenied) {
    await openAppSettings();
} else {
    await Permission.calendarFullAccess.request();
}

Hi @viplavrawal,

Are the required entries added to the ios/Podfile?

As per documentation (expand the iOS section) the PERMISSION_EVENTS_FULL_ACCESS has to be set to 1 to enable support for the calendarFullAccess permission.

viplavrawal · 2024-04-12T09:54:17Z

Hi @mvanbeusekom
Yes. I added PERMISSION_EVENTS_FULL_ACCESS and later PERMISSION_EVENTS as well just to be sure.
The dialog for permission opens correctly and the permission is also granted. It's just that the status remains denied.

peng093 · 2024-04-16T01:47:17Z

I have the same problem，added PERMISSION_EVENTS_FULL_ACCESS and PERMISSION_EVENTS ，Authorization popup does not pop

seungku · 2024-05-09T02:27:49Z

I also have the same issue.

mvanbeusekom · 2024-05-09T09:19:49Z

Instead of saying "I have the same", which really doesn't help resolving the issue, try to provide more information about the bug.

An example app reproducing the behavior for example would be of great help.

pedrofneves · 2024-07-07T19:07:53Z

I'm facing a similar problem but I'm using flutter as a static library because we already have a native iOS swift app.

I run the command:
flutter build ios-framework --no-profile --no-debug --cocoapods --static

then link de frameworks.

The runs normally but the request popup does not appear.

When I use the only the flutter code running a example code (just use the command "flutter run"), the popup appears.

pdfile：

info.plist:

running order：
permission == Permission.calendarFullAccess

await permission.request().isGranted is true, but await permission.status.isGranted is false;
await Permission.calendarFullAccess.status; should return granted when permission is granted by user.

After restarting the app await Permission.calendarFullAccess.status.isGranted will become true

Hi @mvanbeusekom

Here some info to reproduce the bug.

Please select affected platform(s)

iOS

Package version: ^11.3.1

Code Sample

Code sample

class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
  const MyApp({super.key});

  Future<void> _onTap() async {
    const permission = Permission.calendarFullAccess;
    await permission.request();

    final permissionToString = '$permission=${await permission.status}';

    // It prints: Permission.calendarFullAccess=PermissionStatus.denied
    print('The permission status is now: $permissionToString');

    // Permission status is always denied, but if the user changes the
    // permission from the app settings, the status is changed to granted.
  }

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return MaterialApp(
      home: Scaffold(
        appBar: AppBar(
          title: const Text('Calendar permission'),
        ),
        body: Center(child: ElevatedButton(
          onPressed: _onTap,
          child: const Text('Request Calendar Permission'),
        ),),
      ),
