iOS 17.5 is now live and the bug seems to fixed.

This is still an issue with the iOS 17.4 RC. In addition to that, one funny thing is that once one gets a default denied status after initially calling requestTrackingAuthorizationWithCompletionHandler: method, the actual value of the authorization status is still zero (not determined). Try running this code and check the values of the callbackStatus and status: [ATTrackingManager requestTrackingAuthorizationWithCompletionHandler:^(ATTrackingManagerAuthorizationStatus callbackStatus) { ATTrackingManagerAuthorizationStatus status = [ATTrackingManager trackingAuthorizationStatus]; }];
