Typing requires the accelerometer for some functions (like undo on Apple at least).
but that would be your keyboards permission not the app
Maybe it doesn’t pass through? Some apps need permission for camera and library, the camera would in theory give access to library like the keyboard to accelerometer as well, but that’s changed in recent months.
No, the camera and library permissions always have been separate, it's just that Apple's official camera app integrates them. Think about it, one's hardware and the other one's basically software.
In the last few months you’ve had to give permission to both, so that’s not true at all. Before you never had to give permission individually.
