Location Permission Prompt is not showing up

Question

`I want to show a permission prompt to get location permission from user. But my prompt is not showing up in the app. I have tried many codes from different sites but nothing worked. Here is my code....

`private fun requestpermission(){

    islocationpermissiongranted = ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(
        this, Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION
    ) == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED

    backgroundlocationpermission = ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(
        this, Manifest.permission.ACCESS_BACKGROUND_LOCATION
    ) == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED

    val permissionRequest : MutableList<String> = ArrayList()

    if(!islocationpermissiongranted){
        permissionRequest.add(Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION)
    }
    if(!backgroundlocationpermission){
        permissionRequest.add(Manifest.permission.ACCESS_BACKGROUND_LOCATION)
    }

    if(permissionRequest.isNotEmpty()){
        permissionLauncher.launch(permissionRequest.toTypedArray())
    }
}

override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
    WindowCompat.setDecorFitsSystemWindows(window, true)
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)


    permissionLauncher = registerForActivityResult(ActivityResultContracts.RequestMultiplePermissions()){
        permissions ->
        islocationpermissiongranted = permissions[Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION] ?: islocationpermissiongranted
        backgroundlocationpermission = permissions[Manifest.permission.ACCESS_BACKGROUND_LOCATION] ?: backgroundlocationpermission
    }

    requestpermission()

}`

You're attempting to requests both foreground and background location permission at the same time. This is not allowed and such requests are implicitly denied.

First of all you need to register permission of location in the manifest and if you already added that permission then here is another code and it's work perfectly fine

override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)
        title = "Location"
        
        if (ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(this@MainActivity,
                android.Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION) !==
            PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
            if (ActivityCompat.shouldShowRequestPermissionRationale(this@MainActivity,
                    android.Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION)) {
                ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(this@MainActivity,
                    arrayOf(android.Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION), 1)
            } else {
                ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(this@MainActivity,
                    arrayOf(android.Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION), 1)
            }
        }
    }

    override fun onRequestPermissionsResult(requestCode: Int, permissions: Array<String>,
                                            grantResults: IntArray) {
        super.onRequestPermissionsResult(requestCode, permissions, grantResults)
        when (requestCode) {
            1 -> {
                if (grantResults.isNotEmpty() && grantResults[0] ==
                    PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
                    if ((ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(this@MainActivity,
                            android.Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION) ===
                                PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED)) {
                        Toast.makeText(this, "Permission Granted", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show()
                    }
                } else {
                    Toast.makeText(this, "Permission Denied", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show()
                }
                return
            }
        }
    }

This is a permission of location in manifest file.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools">

    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION"/>

    <application
        android:allowBackup="true"
        android:dataExtractionRules="@xml/data_extraction_rules"

Location Permission Prompt is not showing up
