iOS - App crashed because it attempted to access privacy - sensitive data without a usage description

Question

I get the following error:

[access] This app has crashed because it attempted to access privacy-sensitive data without a usage description. The app's Info.plist must contain an NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription key with a string value explaining to the user how the app uses this data.

Do you know how to fix that?

Answer 1

These are set in the plist for your project. You can add/remove these by navigating to your target info inspector and expanding the "Custom iOS Target Properties" section. For example, one of the entries here in a project of mine is:

Privacy - Camera Usage Description
Allows user to capture a photo or video to upload to their family circle

You can see how this looks here:

Answer 2

You need to go to your Info.plist, add a new row and paste NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription into the key column. Then in the value column give a description as to why you need to access the user's photo library. Repeat the same step with NSCameraUsageDescription if you intend to use the device's camera.
