Check for mic permission on iOS 7 without showing prompt

Question

The only documented method for checking mic permission on iOS 7 that I could find is requestRecordPermission documented on AVAudioSession. https://

Answer 1

In iOS 8, they added a new property to AVAudioSession:

[AVAudioSession sharedInstance].recordPermission

That returns a AVAudioSessionRecordPermission:

enum {
   AVAudioSessionRecordPermissionUndetermined     = 'undt',
   AVAudioSessionRecordPermissionDenied           = 'deny',
   AVAudioSessionRecordPermissionGranted          = 'grnt'
};
typedef NSUInteger  AVAudioSessionRecordPermission;

But there doesn't seem to be a way in iOS 7.
