I have no idea what all of you are talking about here.
What should this have to do with the Play Store and the Google Play Store guidelines?
I think, nothing.
It just ensures that the storage permissions (READ / WRITE) are both declared in the Manifest and specifies how paths are handled by components that can save / read something (e.g. Canvas).
I set DefaultFileScope = Legacy to ensure that WRITE is declared in the Manifest (for devices with Android < 10), and override Legacy for the File component if necessary.
Try this APK on all Android versions (especially Android 6 - 9, 10, 11):
The app saves a text file in the ASD (for devices with Android 10+) and copies it from there to the shared storage (e.g. /Download/myTextFiles/... and read it from there (of course without storage permissions). For devices with Android < 10, the text file is directly saved in /Download/myTextFiles/ and read from there (WRITE permission is required). The same with the Canvas component.
Check it and you might understand.
