Answer 1

In info.plist, "Bundle display name" field can not be empty.

Example

Answer 2

I realize that this is an old question, but have one other last-ditch tip to offer...

After trying the above suggestions, I still had Camera, Photos, Music Library permissions issues on an iPod touch running iOS 9.3. The Settings app > Privacy > Photos listed no apps (neither did Privacy > Camera, or Privacy > Media Library). The Settings app did not contain a row for my app, so there was no way for customers to change my app's Privacy permissions.

The solution was to open the Settings app > General > Reset, then tap Reset Location & Privacy. Apparently, my device's privacy settings had somehow become corrupted. After the reset, all these issues were resolved.

Answer 4

If you are getting this screen there are probably below reasons and solutions :

1.If you are not getting access permission alert.

Solution : 1. Add CFBundleDisplayName and its value as you application title or anything you want. 2. Add NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription in info.plist file

2.Check your Settings -> Privacy -> Photos, privacy is disabled or enable.

Solution : Enable privacy for photos.

3.If you are working on simulator and have already added CFBundleDisplayName not getting alert for photo access.

Solation : Make sure Xcode you are using must be in Application folder to get permission access alert.

Answer 5

FOR iOS10 In info.plist

"CFBundleDisplayName" enter your app name

<key>CFBundleDisplayName</key>
<string>IMS Food-taxi</string> 

and "NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription" add description

<key>NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription</key>
<string>you will need to give the app permission to use the Photos.</string>

Answer 6

This issue appear in iOS 9 when your application Info.plist file contains a key: "CFBundleDisplayName" with empty string value.

You can enter your app name there and it should work.
