IosPermissionInContext [rule] v1.0.0

Trigger permission requests at the point of use, not at app launch.

Applies To

iOS apps requiring camera, location, notifications, contacts, or any permission-gated capability

Examples

• Ask for camera access when the user taps the camera shutter button, not on first app open.
• Ask for location when the user taps 'Find stores near me', not during onboarding.
• Ask for notification permission after the user completes their first booking and sees the confirmation screen.

Rationale

Requesting all permissions at launch provides no context for why they are needed, resulting in most users denying them. Contextual requests — shown immediately before the action that requires the permission — have significantly higher approval rates because the user understands the value exchange.
