I don't know if Android gives us any indication the user toggled a permission outside of us requesting it.

With that said, I think in any of these circumstances, we could recheck the permissions when returning to Chrome and dismiss the now incorrect UI shown as appropriate.

I don't think we'd need to reload the page, we'd just need to treat it as if the user had tapped "update permissions" and gone through the flow and accepted everything.

It's just not a case we expect users to do, so we didn't optimize for it.

Treating it as if the user had tapped "update permissions" would be great. Understand it's not a common flow, so fine to keep this as low priority. Nice to fix as polish to help those struggling to get a permission back on (they are more likely to face this via OS location instead of the chrome app permission in the video.)

Adding privacy as FYI, because the topic of permission UI is very relevant to privacy.

(removing myself and adding +maxwalker as the security/privacy design contact)

I guess this is covered by the redesign that hkamila@ is working on.
