@codeconsole Can you explain how you are testing the PR changes?
When I took a photo using the changes from #712, the GPS Exif data does not
exist.
JavaScript Sample:
```js
const cameraOptions = {
quality: 100,
destinationType: Camera.DestinationType.FILE_URI,
sourceType: Camera.PictureSourceType.CAMERA,
encodingType: Camera.EncodingType.JPEG,
mediaType: Camera.MediaType.PICTURE,
saveToPhotoAlbum: true,
}
cameraTakePhoto.onclick = function() {
navigator.camera.getPicture(onPhotoDataSuccess, onFail, cameraOptions);
};
```
config.xml Sample
```xml
<platform name="ios">
<preference name="CameraUsesGeolocation" value="true" />
<edit-config target="NSCameraUsageDescription" file="*-Info.plist"
mode="merge">
<string>need camera access to take pictures</string>
</edit-config>
<edit-config target="NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription" file="*-Info.plist"
mode="merge">
<string>need photo library access to get pictures from there</string>
</edit-config>
<edit-config target="NSLocationWhenInUseUsageDescription"
file="*-Info.plist" mode="merge">
<string>need location access to find things nearby</string>
</edit-config>
<edit-config target="NSPhotoLibraryAddUsageDescription"
file="*-Info.plist" mode="merge">
<string>need photo library access to save pictures there</string>
</edit-config>
</platform>
```
From iOS's "Photo" app, I selected the photos from the gallery and
airdropped them to my macOS. I opened the JPG photos with the "Previewer" app
and opened the "Show Inspector" > "More Info" tab > "Exif" sub-tab. In this
tab, there is no GPS location data.
From iOS's "Photo" app, I also tried checking by the "Places" category, and
it's not there.
After taking the photo and clicking on the "Select" button, the location
permission request dialog did open. I tried both options, "Allow Once" and
"Allow While Using App" but neither of them made a difference.
There was also a minor issue that I noticed while testing. The location
permission dialog will automatically close itself after a few seconds. This
does not give people enough time to read and confirm. The dialog should not
close until the user responds.
