Dear Developer,

We identified one or more issues with a recent delivery for your app, "MY APP NAME" 7.8.0 (140). Please correct the following issues, then upload again.

ITMS-90683: Missing Purpose String in Info.plist - Your app's code references one or more APIs that access sensitive user data. The app's Info.plist file should contain a NSContactsUsageDescription key with a user-facing purpose string explaining clearly and completely why your app needs the data. Starting Spring 2019, all apps submitted to the App Store that access user data are required to include a purpose string. If you're using external libraries or SDKs, they may reference APIs that require a purpose string. While your app might not use these APIs, a purpose string is still required. You can contact the developer of the library or SDK and request they release a version of their code that doesn't contain the APIs.

Expected behavior

It should work without this apple message, i can't update my app anymore.

Reproduction steps

Just Send your app to Itunes Connect

Configuration

Version: 1.x

Platform:

• 📱 iOS
• 🤖 Android

Check for the setup part of the README.md file. Following setup guide under the iOS section, you should add permission config in your Podfile.

[maxmblack]

Thats because Flutter changed the structure of the podfile on v1.20.
The steps from the current setup guide dont work anymore for the new podfile structure as far as I know

[MisterJimson]

Also running into this. Anyone have a workaround so far?

[filipperodrigues]

Has anyone managed to solve it? I'm having trouble with the following permission: NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription

[MisterJimson]

After re adding the changes required to the podfile as noted in the readme, I am no longer having this issue.

@MisterJimson
Hi. Can you share your podfile
