ITMS-90683: Missing Purpose String in Info.plist

Deploying the app on testFlight I'm having the following issue,

The app's Info.plist file should contain a NSLocationAlwaysUsageDescription key with a user-facing purpose string explaining clearly and completely why your app needs the data.

Even if I have include on the Info.plist file the keys needed for the location access.

The app is submitted for review and tests but I'm still getting an email on every submit that says:

Version: 1.0.2 Build: 74) has one or more issues

I've checked the solution here in order to add the deprecated keys too

Error Appstore connect : Missing Purpose String in Info.plist File

Sorry, perhaps I'm missing something here?

Solution

  • Right click on your Info.plist file. then click on 'Open As' -> 'Source Code'.

    Now find and replace below keys,

    <key>NSLocationAlwaysAndWhenInUseUsageDescription</key>
<string>your description.</string>
<key>NSLocationAlwaysUsageDescription</key>
<string>your description</string>
<key>NSLocationWhenInUseUsageDescription</key>
<string>your description.</string>

    Property list view of your info.plist is not showing like

    Privacy - Location always and when In Use Usage Description

Privacy - Location always Usage Description

    Instead it is showing NSLocationAlwaysAndWhenInUseUsageDescription and NSLocationAlwaysUsageDescription
