App Tracking Transparency (ATT) support

[benedictstrube]

With the release of iOS 14.5, tracking frameworks are only allowed to access a users IDFA after he/she gave his/her consent actively. For the iOS AppsFyler SDK, there is the option to delay events (such as app installs) tracked with AppsFlyer until the user had the option to answer the dialogue asking for his consent to be tracked (and as a result, send those events with the IDFA from then on instead of sending them without IDFA until he gave his consent). However, I cannot find the option to do this in the Nativescript plugins API or documentation. Am I missing something?

In my understanding, it is really important to delay especially the app installs until the IDFA is accessible, to optimise advertisement campaigns. So it seems important, that events are delayed. When the option to delay events is not accessible in the plugin, is there another way? Like initialising the plugin after asking for consent? Does this also delay events?

Hey @benedictstrube ,

Thank you for reaching out!
We're working on adding the waitForATTUserAuthorization API:

Hey @bergerbyte ,
waitForATTUserAuthorization API was added in v6.2.6-2.
Here is a quick guide on how to set NS for iOS 14:
