Hi,
(Poke @JamesMontemagno )
My questions are:
- Does Xamarin.Forms.Maps handle requesting permissions on Android 6+ when using
Xamarin.Forms.Maps.Map.IsShowingUser
?
If yes, from which version?
If no, why does it (seem to) handle it on iOS? - Should we handle requesting permissions ourselves before using built-in
Xamarin.Forms.Maps.Map.IsShowingUser
? (I have no problem with this idea if it's clear that we have to) - Is there a changelog for
Xamarin.Forms.Maps
? On NuGet, it's the same changelog asXamarin.Forms
My question is related to this question: Can't get location
When developing my application, I mainly run it on iPhone simulator because I find it to be the fastest way to work. It seemed to me that Xamarin.Forms.Maps.Map
handles Location permissions when using IsShowingUser
so I thought it would be the same on Android but only realized today that it was not the case.
So I wonder if any version fixes that (I'm still stuck at 1.5.1) or if we should handle this ourselves.
Regards,
