I am trying to implement App Tracking Transparency in my app. I tried to do this on first ViewControllor, but it crashes the app after uploading to the test flight.

After this, I found a lot of info that this should be done in appDelegate I did this way. Of course, I have set NSUserTrackingUsageDescription in Info.plist

I tried to figure it out with this post.

In the debugger, I always see "Not Determined". Could anyone please help with this?

    func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool {         // Override point for customization after application launch.         requestTrackingPermission()         GADMobileAds.sharedInstance().start(completionHandler: nil)         return true     }

The function

func requestTrackingPermission() {       if #available(iOS 14, *) {         // ATTrackingManager.requestTrackingAuthorization { status in         ATTrackingManager.requestTrackingAuthorization(completionHandler: { status in           switch status {           case .authorized:             // Tracking authorization dialog was shown             // and we are authorized             print("Authorized")                           // Now that we are authorized we can get the IDFA             print(ASIdentifierManager.shared().advertisingIdentifier)                          case .denied:             // Tracking authorization dialog was             // shown and permission is denied             print("Denied")           case .notDetermined:             // Tracking authorization dialog has not been shown             print("Not Determined")           case .restricted:             print("Restricted")           @unknown default:             print("Unknown")           }         }       )}     }

    I found how to do this.

    Add in your first ViewController

    import AppTrackingTransparency import AdSupport import UserNotifications

    Add in viewDidLoad

    DispatchQueue.main.asyncAfter(deadline: .now() + 0.5) { if #available(iOS 14, *) { ATTrackingManager.requestTrackingAuthorization { (status) in print("IDFA STATUS: \(status.rawValue)") } } }

    Nah forget all that. It took me forever to find. But you don't need to trick it by having a delay. You just need to show xcode the app is active. Just copy and paste this:

    NotificationCenter.default.addObserver(forName: UIApplication.didBecomeActiveNotification, object: nil, queue: nil) { _ in self.requestIDFA() } return true } func requestIDFA() { ATTrackingManager.requestTrackingAuthorization { _ in }
