🐛 Bug Report

NOTE: Yes I saw the closed issue where it was stated this was fixed and yes I'm using the hotfix location_permissions: 3.0.0+1

Expected behavior

Upon asking for location permissions and the user taps "when in use", location always is not yet granted.

Reproduction steps

• Use iOS 13 device
• Prompt for location permissions and select "when in use"
• Check if permission level for location always

This returns true:

  static Future<bool> hasLocationAlwaysPermission() async {
    PermissionStatus permission = await LocationPermissions()
        .checkPermissionStatus(level: LocationPermissionLevel.locationAlways);

    return permission == PermissionStatus.granted;
  }

Platform:

• [x] :iphone: iOS 13 (not 12 and lower, seems to work)
• [ ] :robot: Android (all android devices tested work as well)

Hello, just want to share that my current workaround is using different package made by Baselow called permission_handler which currently seem to return the correct permission status for location always.
