I don't know what is the official stance on this, but I don't think it's a
good idea to hardcode an error message string (i.e. "Access to the camera has
been prohibited; please enable it in the Settings app to continue."). This will
be a problem in terms of localization. It should perhaps be passed within
CameraOptions?
> [Camera] iOS8: Handle case where camera is not authorized
> ---------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CB-7667
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-7667
> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: Plugin Camera, Plugin Media Capture
> Affects Versions: 3.5.0
> Environment: iOS 8
> Reporter: Dan Polivy
> Assignee: Shazron Abdullah
> Priority: Minor
>
> In iOS 8, it's possible for the camera to be disabled for any given app; in
> iOS 7, this was only possible in certain regions (e.g. China).
> If the camera is disabled, and someone launches the Camera plugin to capture
> an image from the camera, they'll just get the camera UI with a black screen,
> and no indication that the camera permission is disabled for the app. A
> better UX would be to show the user a prompt indicating that the camera
> permission is disabled, and (on iOS 8) providing a button to take them to the
> Settings app to change it.
> As of iOS 7, there's a new API to test whether the app has access to capture
> the desired media type:

> [AVCaptureDevice authorizationStatusForMediaType:mediaType];
