READ_MEDIA_... permissions on Android 13+

Extensions
1

Here is a small extension that declares the following permissions on Android 13+ in the Manifest:

  • READ_MEDIA_IMAGES
  • READ_MEDIA_VIDEO
  • READ_MEDIA_AUDIO

and up to Android 12:

  • READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE

Since targetSdkVersion = 33, these new storage permissions are required and requested from Android 13. READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE no longer exists on Android 13+.

Check this app on Android 13+ and also on Android < 13:
ReadMedia_perm.apk (6.6 MB)

This topic is about “READ_MEDIA_...” permissions since targetSdkVersion = 33 on Android 13+ and not about permissions in general. So move your question to a new topic. I will answer you there.

… and they are not from Niotron (but from Kodular). Did you check it also with Niotron?

Apparently another bug has been added to Kodular since targetSdk=33.
One can only advise everyone to leave the (long) sinking ship “Kodular” as quickly as possible. It is a total disaster and a complete catastrophe. And most even pay for it, unbelievable!

15

Although I have already answered your question here, you asked the same question on Kodular. So post my answer there and point out the bug with the Cloudinary component (on Kodular) to others. Also let us know if the bug also exists on Niotron. I don’t have an account there so I can’t test it myself.
