Location Purpose String Not Updating

Hello - I am trying to add a more descriptive Location Purpose String for submitting my app to the store. I previously had a placeholder, generic string for testing.

I have updated my info.plist file, but the old string is still appearing.

I have 1) deleted the app from simulator device and rebuilt 2) tried pushing the version to TestFlight 3) Deleted and replaced the values in the info.plist, none of which have resolved this issue. What am I missing here?

Is it possible you've got a "InfoPlist.strings" localization file that's overriding the value in your Info.plist?

More broadly, my recommendation for this sort of problem is to start by looking at the actual contents of your app bundle, figure out what's actually there, then go back and correct the issue in Xcode. Even very large projects tend to not have THAT many strings files, so just open "all" of them until you find it.
