contact permission crashes on IOS

[bilalgodesto]

🐛 Bug Report

I am using permission_handler package to get the permission to access the contacts but as irequest the permission to access contacts my app crashes on IOS. Crash only happens when i run the app in release mode flutter run --release. Other permission like notifications and camera are working fine

Expected behavior

Access contact permission successfully granted or denied

Reproduction steps

• Add permission in Info.plist
• Add permission in Podfile
• Add package dependency in pubspec.yaml
• Add the following code to access contacts

final status = await Permission.contacts.status;

    try {
      if (status.isDenied || status.isPermanentlyDenied) {
        await Permission.contacts.request();
      }
    } catch (e) {
      print('e ${e.toString()}');
    }

Configuration

Version: 9.2.0

Platform:

• [ ] :iphone: iOS

I have the same problem with the 8.1.6 version.

My workaround is to ask the permission with this package https://pub.dev/packages/flutter_contacts And to get the contacts with this package https://pub.dev/packages/contacts_service

My problem was that the contact request info was missing from Info.plist file.

Adding

  <key>NSContactsUsageDescription</key>
  <string>Allow access to contacts</string>

Have solved it for me.

Dear @bilalgodesto,

Did you add the correct key to the plist?And do you perhaps have the stack trace?

Kind regards,
