VarageSale - No Permission Message to Access Photo Library

Date: 01/22/2017
OS Version: 11.0
VarageSale App Version: 3.72

Description:

I am a little rusty with my understandings of permissions with iOS, but I believe that a permission message is required to be displayed to all users before any app has access to an iOS device's camera roll.

There does not seem to be a permission message displayed by the VarageSale app after the user selects "Choose from your photo library" 

Steps to reproduce:

1. Download and launch the VarageSale app
2. Select "Sign up with email"
3. Enter in an email address and a password on the "Email and Password" page
4. From the "Profile Photo and Name" page select "Add profile photo"
5. Select "Choose from your photo library"
6. Note no permission message for access to camera roll

Result: The VarageSale app does not seem to display a permission message for access to photo library during account creation

Expected: I think that a permission message is required








I was able to access my photo library without a message about consent. There was a message for camera access, however...
