[Jose4gg]

After Mapbox ask for permissions on Android the app starts crashing itself continuously.

If I select DENY the app starts perfectly

I don't know your exact situation, but I pass through a similar issue by importing some google play services packages in the build.gradle file:

dependencies {
    [...]
    compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-base:+'
    compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:+'
    compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-maps:+'
}

@hernanmateo
I copy the following line into Android/App/build.gradle and get the following error during build to the simulator :
com.android.build.api.transform.TransformException: com.android.ide.common.process.ProcessException: java.util.concurrent.ExecutionException: com.android.dex.DexIndexOverflowException: Cannot merge new index 66297 into a non-jumbo instruction!
Did you do anything else in that matter
Thx,
Jessica

Try to enable dexOptions/jumboMode in your app/build.grade file

[...]
android {
    [...]
    dexOptions {
        jumboMode true
    }
}

@hernanmateo it works fine thx 🥇

@Jose4gg It does sound like certain deps are colliding I would recommending doing what @hernanmateo mentioned above
