Rejection of license

Android system 12, 11 rejects application license (android.permission.MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE)
with file picker extension [Free] File Picker Extension - Pick File From Storage (2.1.6)


In 15 seconds it says "Allow only media management" (:point_left: this is the selection) and "Do not allow"

Some blocks:

The extension might not work in Android versions 10, 11 or 12.

Is there another File Picker for all android versions or even more?

Android versions after SDK 30 are toooooooooo concerned about privacy, just not allowing apps to manage All Files.

I’ve heard that currently, App Inventor is trying to implement a file picker with SAF. That way, the problem would e solved.

I have noticed this but in other applications it happens

only to ask for permission in the blocks does not help very much without the permission in the manifest...

Be aware that this permission is usually not granted by Google.... ler's assume, you do not plan to publish your app in Google Play...

without permission MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE:
what kind of files are you trying to pick? media files or non media files? created by your app or other apps? see also the overview here Some basics on Android storage system - #34 by Anke
and use SAF to pick non media files created by other apps
