We think that this bug might be related to #wave-collect - Release 1

[Christinadobrzyn]

I don't exactly know what issue this could be related to but asking if it's related to - #50980

[mkzie2]

I cannot reproduce this issue on the latest main. I also cannot find the Organize my own expenses in onboarding purpose as mentioned in Precondition.

Can't reproduce in staging using Android web

[aldo-expensify]

I see that if I reject the permissions, and then tap "Continue" again, nothing happens anymore.

I see that this also happens in production, so removing the DeployBlockerCash label.

We can see in the video provider that the Camera permissions were already blocked at the start of the test, so that explain why the pop up doesn't appear:

I think this is expected behaviour, closing.
