A lot of operating systems such as MiUI or Samsung's OS don't allow displaying pop-up windows by default while the app is running in the background. Perhaps even PixelOS doesn't allow this :)

When we request permissions with CarContext.requestPermissions nothing happens because of these restrictions.

In the attachment, you can find a screenshot of an additional setting screen in MiUI with disabled permission. Until the user enables this permission, CarContext.requestPermissions won't be able to display any pop-up window. Even with the configured carPermissionActivityLayout.

This problem can be reproduced with the sample app from the androidx library.

I would like to inquire if there is any ongoing effort to address this issue, or if developers should explore alternative stable solutions to this problem.
