Calling LocalNotificationCenter.RequestNotificationPermissionAsync().GetAwaiter().GetResult() blocks the thread and iOS app launch

Describe the bug

The Xamarin.Forms setup doc indicates you should call LocalNotificationCenter.RequestNotificationPermissionAsync().GetAwaiter().GetResult() in the FinishedLaunching override, but this blocks the app from loading as the thread is being blocked. Is there a synchronous version of this method if it must be called for iOS apps?

To Reproduce

Add:

public override bool FinishedLaunching(UIApplication app, NSDictionary options)
        {
            global::Xamarin.Forms.Forms.Init();

            // Ask the user for permission to show notifications on iOS 10.0+ at startup.
            // If not asked at startup, the user will be asked when showing the first notification.
            LocalNotificationCenter.RequestNotificationPermissionAsync().GetAwaiter().GetResult();

            LoadApplication(new App());

            return base.FinishedLaunching(app, options);
        }

Expected behavior iOS app to load as normal

Platform (please complete the following information):

• OS: 15.5

Smartphone (please complete the following information):

• Device: [e.g. iPhone13]
• OS: [e.g. iOS15.5]

Hi @thudugala, I can confirm LocalNotificationCenter.RequestNotificationPermission() in v10.0.2 works as expected. Thanks

public override void WillEnterForeground(UIApplication uiApplication) { LocalNotificationCenter.ResetApplicationIconBadgeNumber(); base.WillEnterForeground(uiApplication); } should be

LocalNotificationCenter.ResetApplicationIconBadgeNumber(uiApplication);
