How to detect if user pressed 'Never ask me again' in permission popup for android

Expo SDK
1

My code looks like the following

const cameraRollPermission = await Permissions.askAsync(Permissions.CAMERA_ROLL);

cameraRollPermission.status returns ‘denied’ when the user denies the permission, but is there any way I can detect if the user also pressed ‘Never ask me again’ while denying the permission? My app won’t work without this permission and I would like to redirect user to the app settings screen so that they can grant this permission manually.

I am using expo v31.

Hey @pratik.kayastha,

There isn’t a way to know this with the current implementation of the Permissions module.

Cheers,
Adam
