requestTrackingPermission crash the app [OS 14.5.1]

[OleksiyTrofimenko]

Hi, thank you for your library. I've set up action inside my root component, to call prompt modal

It's very simple but anyway app crashed when requestTrackingPermission() triggered

`const onCheckUserTrackingPermission = useCallback(async () => {
try {
const trackingStatus = await getTrackingStatus();

  if (trackingStatus === 'not-determined') {
    return await requestTrackingPermission();
  }

  if (trackingStatus === 'authorized' || trackingStatus === 'unavailable') {
    return;
  }
} catch (error) {}

}, []);

useEffect(() => { onCheckUserTrackingPermission(); }, [onCheckUserTrackingPermission]);

Can you share the crashlogs? Check your native logs window in Xcode.

Did you edit your Info.plist to add a tracking info description?

[OleksiyTrofimenko]

@mrousavy, unfortunately, logs are clear, through the cycle of executing my component, I've used a log to this case

and the last message that I've faced it's status of const trackingStatus = await getTrackingStatus();

that shows not-determined

Yes, I edit Info.plist and added the required key with the description. The problem that on the emulator everything works fine, but on real device, after requestTrackingPermission called, my app crashed

I have NSUserTrackingUsageDescription in my Info.plist and I remember this was working before this version.
I have error for message: :"null is not an object (evaluating 's.requestTrackingPermission') and name: TypeError

      const trackingStatus = await requestTrackingPermission();
      logInfoInstabug(trackingStatus, 'trackingStatus');
      report(trackingStatus, 'trackingStatus:');
    } catch (e) {
      report(e, 'requestTrackingPermission() Error');
      reportErrorInstabug(e, 'requestTrackingPermission() Error');
    }

I have the same error "null is not an object (evaluating 'TrackingTransparency.getTrackingStatus')"

How can I solve this? @mrousavy

Hey guys. Removing the app from simulator/real device, removing Pods folder, reinstalling pods and reseting the metro cache with react-native start --reset-cache did work for me.

    }

I also had the same situation as you. I try adding pod 'react-native-tracking-transparency', :path => '../node_modules/react-native-tracking-transparency' in Podfile then pod install. This work for me.

It's still crashing :(

[teivienn]

Have you added NSUserTrackingUsageDescription to info.plist?

[piyushbeli]

pod 'react-native-tracking-transparency', :path => '../node_modules/react-native-tracking-transparency'

Works for me too.

Thank you so much for this solution. Have been stuck at this, and this fixed the issue. I am unsure why or which step solved it, but it works now!
