Earlier this year I mentioned the concept of pre-permissions (asking the user for access permission before really asking them for permission) to increase user authorizations, and mentioned the ClusterPrePermissions library for photos and contacts and JLPermissions that adds support for pre-permissions for push notifications, reminders and the calendar.

Here’s an open source project providing a framework for asking your users for pre-permission called ISHPermissionKit from iOSphere.

iOSPhere is different from the components mentioned previously in that it provides a framework without a built-in interface so you can present your own views, allows you to present a sequence of asking for permission, and a unified API.

iOSPhere also provides support for many different permission categories, including as listed in the readme:

• CoreLocation: Always and WhenInUse
• CoreMotion: Activity data (step counting, etc.)
• Microphone
• Photos: Camera Roll and Camera
• Notifications: Local
• Social-Services: Facebook, Twitter, SinaWeibo, TencentWeibo
• Health-App

iOSphere works with iOS 8 and will fall back gracefully on iOS 7.

Here’s an animation from the readme showing the framework in action:

A nice framework for asking users for pre-permissions.
