Mike's Party Store app for iOS: Crashes the first time the user disallows camera access

iOS 13.4.1
Mike's Party Store app for iOS (version 0.0.120)
Date: 05/07/20

Description:

Looking for one of the easiest ways to find a crash with an iOS app?

Well, here you go:


This was from an app for a place called Mike's Party Store in Michigan. It was developed by a company called City Hive Inc., which develops many apps for locations that sell beer and wine. I am guessing that the same crash happens with other apps that they develop.

Truth be told, it's not that serious of an issue, as it only happens once, and how many people access the function only to deny access? Still, if you're looking for a crash with an iOS app, this is one of the most common. Has been for years!

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Download the Mike's Party Store app for iOS (version 0.0.120)
2. Select "Yes" to the over 21 prompt
3. Dismiss the notifications prompt
4. Select the slide bar/slider in the upper left hand corner of the screen
4. Select "Scan"
5. Select "OK" from the barcode prompt
6. From the "Mike's Party Store" prompt select "Don't Allow"
7. Tap the camera option in the bottom right hand corner of the screen

Result: The Mike's Party Shop app for iOS will crash, the first time the user selects "Don't Allow" from the camera permission prompt and then presses the camera icon on screen

Expected: Mike's Party Shop app shouldn't crash after the user disallows camera access

Here's the crash dump:
