alexshalamov has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/sensors: == Should we request permission when sensor is not supported by the platform? == It would be nice if specification could provide guideline for the order of "get default sensor" and "request permission" steps. If we request permission first, end user would get notification like "page would like to use sensor X" if user grants permission and then we figure out that it is not supported by HW, it would be annoying for the user / web developer. If we check whether sensor is supported before the permission request, user experience might be better, but then information about platform is exposed before permission is granted. Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/sensors/issues/145 using your GitHub account
