Thanks, that makes sense. Better option than what Android does too, IMO.

Especially if the permissions are also more granular than they are on Android. Otherwise I could imagine an evil app prompting a type of permission in the context of something completely innocuous and reasonable (say, to pre-fill contact data to some input field), only to use that very same permission immediately afterwards for something evil (sending all contacts data to their servers).
