## Android studio

### Version control

## Permissions
|
|
|
|
### Files access
|
|
|
|
The required permission depends on android SDK version:
|
|
|
|
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.TIRAMISU)
|
|
Manifest.permission.READ_MEDIA_AUDIO
|
|
else
|
|
Manifest.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE
|
|
|
|
### Permission request
|
|
|
|
[Request runtime permissions](https://developer.android.com/training/permissions/requesting)
|
|
|
|
Since Android 6.0 (API level 23):
|
|
|
|
Android will ignore permission request and will not show the request dialog
|
|
if the user's action implies "don't ask again."
|
|
This leaves the app in a crippled state and the user confused.
|
|
Google says "don't try to convince the user", so it returns false for `shouldShowRequestPermissionRationale`.
|
|
|
|
To help the user proceed, we show the `Request permission` button only if `shouldShowRequestPermissionRationale == true`
|
|
because there's a good chance the permission request dialog will not be ignored.
|
|
|
|
If `shouldShowRequestPermissionRationale == false` we instead show the "rationale" message and a button to open
|
|
the app info dialog where the user can explicitly grand the permission. |
