In debug it works but in production the alert box does not appear on Android

I have this abnormal problem. When I compile the application in debug mode everything works in the correct mode. The moment I create the apk and publish it for online tests, the alert to activate the GPS no longer appears. Anyone know what it is? Here the specifications:

try setTimeout or a delay function before trying to access the Android API.

const delay = ms => new Promise(res => setTimeout(res, ms));
await delay(5000);
