Steps to reproduce the Behavior

Unfortunately it happens randomly, but when trying to access the current location I get this exception:

Plugin.Geolocator.Abstractions.GeolocationException: A geolocation error occured: Unauthorized

I believe it started happening after the latest iOS version updates because the plugin version has been the same for a long time. Any advice?

Hi thanks I've already seen that but it's regarding android. But i did check my code and i do have permissions checks. I've had it for a long time, and never a problem. I think it started lately after some iOS updates because my code hasn't changed.

On a new install does your app ask for permission for location? If not try adding code to facilitate the same. Use the latest of both Plugin.Permission and GeoLocatorPlugin.
