Permission is null error for ACTIVITY_RECOGNITION permission 'n React Native

Question

I try to ger permission from React Native app via PermissionsAndroid.

It's my request:

await PermissionsAndroid.requestMultiple([PermissionsAndroid.PERMISSIONS.ACTIVITY_RECOGNITION, some other permissions which work well])

When I try to run this I get the belowing screen:

I tried to remove other permissions and the error screen come from this permission.

I added <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACTIVITY_RECOGNITION" /> and also <uses-permission android:name="com.google.android.gms.permission.ACTIVITY_RECOGNITION" /> to androidManifest.xml.

My react native version is 0.67.

What is your idea?

Answer 1

i just want to inform those who are using WRITE_SMS permission that there is a specific bug with this and you also don't actually need it to send SMSs using the react-native-get-sms-android package, the SEND_SMS is enough for that.
