I am using VS version 8.8.1 (build 37) for Xamarin iOS app development. I want to add iOS 14 location permissions - Privacy - Location Default Accuracy Reduced & Privacy - Location Temporary Usage Description Dictionary. However, I don't see them listed in Info.plist dropdown (please see image attached). Does Xamarin iOS have support for iOS precise accuracy properties yet?

I test the function on both the lastest VS for mac and VS, it turns out that the permissions have not been added to generic PList yet. Try adding the permission entering the Privacy Keys. You could send a feed back to the product team of VS to fix this problem.

2020-11-24T13:28:09.747+00:00 Thanks for the details JarvanZhang. I already tried adding privacy keys in Plist file. It didn't throw any error but it didn't show the correct location privacy pop up. I will send a feedback to VS team.
Thanks. -
