[iOS] Unable to observe if the timeSensitive permission has been granted

[luca-tomasetti]

I am developing a mobile application and some notifications rely on the timeSensitive interruption level.
As far as I can see here, observing the setting doe not provide any information on the timeSensitive value.

Is it possible to observe if the timeSensitive permission has been granted on the device?

I can easily observe the other values (as documented here) but nothing that I can see about the timeSensitive permission...

PS. I'm currently using the latest version as today:
"@notifee/react-native": "^9.1.8",

This is what I can observe after requesting the notification permissions:

const notificationSettings = await notifee.requestPermission()

console.log(NotificationSettings["ios"]) 
// ==> {"alert": 1, "announcement": 0, "authorizationStatus": 1, "badge": 1, "carPlay": -1, "criticalAlert": 1, "inAppNotificationSettings": 0, "lockScreen": 1, "notificationCenter": 1, "showPreviews": 1, "sound": 1}

Setting the Time-Sensitive Notifications switch to true or false does NOT change the NotificationSettings object after requesting the permissions with notifee.requestPermission() ...

time-sensitive interruption level is no longer a permission, it is an entitlement. Your app either has it or it doesn't.

But I think that's just a language thing - that is, semantics - in the iOS docs it is definitely an entitlement now but it is also a "setting", which...works like a permission.

The actual permission is deprecated here, was only ever on iOS 15 - https://developer.apple.com/documentation/usernotifications/unauthorizationoptions/timesensitive

But! Assuming you have the entitlement, it is an interruption level you may set - it appears we have implemented it based on the sample code in current docs
https://developer.apple.com/documentation/usernotifications/unnotificationinterruptionlevel/timesensitive
https://docs.page/invertase/notifee/react-native/ios/behaviour#interruption-levels

And it looks like it should come through as information about current notification center settings:
https://developer.apple.com/documentation/usernotifications/unnotificationsettings#Getting-Device-Specific-Settings

We parse those and return them here, but it looks like we're missing a fetch for timeSensitiveSetting

notifee/ios/NotifeeCore/NotifeeCore.m

Lines 709 to 722 in b73c76d

	iosDictionary[@"showPreviews"] = showPreviews;
	iosDictionary[@"authorizationStatus"] = authorizationStatus;
	iosDictionary[@"alert"] =
	[NotifeeCoreUtil numberForUNNotificationSetting:settings.alertSetting];
	iosDictionary[@"badge"] =
	[NotifeeCoreUtil numberForUNNotificationSetting:settings.badgeSetting];
	iosDictionary[@"sound"] =
	[NotifeeCoreUtil numberForUNNotificationSetting:settings.soundSetting];
	iosDictionary[@"carPlay"] =
	[NotifeeCoreUtil numberForUNNotificationSetting:settings.carPlaySetting];
	iosDictionary[@"lockScreen"] =
	[NotifeeCoreUtil numberForUNNotificationSetting:settings.lockScreenSetting];
	iosDictionary[@"notificationCenter"] =
	[NotifeeCoreUtil numberForUNNotificationSetting:settings.notificationCenterSetting];

If you added that in and tested it I bet it would work? I'd happily take a PR for it if it worked for you
