distinctdan opened a new issue #69: Apple has crippled device motion behind permission check - can this plugin be revived?
URL: https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-device-motion/issues/69
 
 
   So as of iOS 13, Apple now requires a website or webview to ask permission before using the device motion API's for security reasons. The permission request launches a popup that the user has to agree to, which has to be done every time the app runs. For my tilt-based game, this is unacceptable. What do you guys think about reviving this plugin? Or, is there some workaround? I've been unable to find a way to permanently enable motion for a webview.
