Menu
I have an app that uses the iPhone's contacts. With iOS 6, the user will be prompted for Contact access on the first try. At this point, the user can hit 'Allow' or 'Don't Allow'. The problem is when the user backgrounds the app, and then navigates to Settings->Privacy->Contacts to toggle the Contact privacy setting for my app. Once it is toggled, I can see on the console that my app:
Application 'UIKitApplication:com.myApp' exited abnormally with signal 9: Killed: 9
I can't find any information on this in Apple's documentation. Does anyone know a way to prevent this? Is this as designed? Or is this an Apple bug?

Go to the Settings Section, it looks like a cog. There you should see a section called Privacy. You can also change these setting through Apps and Notifications. Here you can decide what apps have access to – things like your messages, photos and location.
Go to Settings > Privacy, then tap App Privacy Report (iOS 15.2 or later). The App Privacy Report shows you how apps are using the permissions you granted them and shows you their network activity.
Turn on App Privacy ReportIn Settings, tap Privacy. Scroll to and tap App Privacy Report. Tap Turn on App Privacy Report.
the OS sends a SIGKILL which is not a crash - Apple session on privacy in iOS6 says:
WWDC 2012 Session Videos: Privacy Support in iOS and OS X
Expiration handler: beginBackgroundTaskWithExpirationHandler
There is no way around this I can see.
