Permission priming refers to screens that prepare users before they see system permission requests. But why do we need to ask for permission twice?

When encountering a system popup, most users instinctively close it without reading. A permission priming screen captures users' attention and explains the value of granting access.

To create effective permission priming screens:

• Clearly explain why you're asking for access and how users will benefit.
• Integrate it into the onboarding flow — for example, Dropbox requests Gallery permission as part of syncing photos.
• Ask for access in context — for instance, Instagram requests photo access only after users open the camera.^[1]
