[Feature request]: Detect when a user give a permission just for once about flutter-permission-handler HOT 2 CLOSED

Hi @Pierre-Monier,

Unfortunately both Android and iOS don't make a specific distinction between the "when in use" and "just once" permission.

The iOS SDK provides the methods "requestWhenInUseAuthorization" en "requestAlwaysAuthorization" which returns one of the following states:

• notDetermined
• restricted
• denied
• authorizedAlways
• authorizedWhenInUse

When the user selects "just once", Apple will return the authorizedWhenInUse status.

Android works in a similar way. The Android SDK allows us to request "ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION" or "ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" via the RequestPermission method. This method only returns "granted" or "denied". Which also means there is no way to distinguish between "When in use" or "Just once".

Since the native platform doesn't offer support to distinguish between the different states, we unfortunately also cannot provide this option.
