"GPS Disabled" when location is available #78

Open RedAuburn opened 1 month ago

RedAuburn commented 1 month ago

When launching the app, i get the error "GPS disabled", even though i have location fix in other apps.

it also overlays itself, looks like a new popup is added every time a location request fails, even though the popup is already displayed

Panoramax version: 1.0 Beta Device: Oneplus 9 Pro OS: LineageOS 20 + MicroG

What are your location permissions set to for Panoramax from App Info > Permissions > Location?

Additionally, are you able to reproduce this bug in the same was as Issue #59?

wow.. i'm surprised i didn't think to check that 😅 it was not allowed. i don't remember a popup asking for permission though, i'll double-check with a fresh reinstall.

nope, camera works fine for me :)

can confirm that no location request popup happens. i do get the camera permission popup though.

I believe that it's the expected behaviour. Therefore can we close this issue?

RedAuburn commented 1 week ago

is it really expected behaviour not to prompt the user for position access?? If so, i guess it can be closed, but it's not good UX IMO

No it's not; sorry, I misunderstood. We'll investigate. Also, we will display visually to the user the fact that GPS is disabled, stopping him/her to start recording see https://github.com/nobelization/panoramax-mobile-app/issues/85
