Android permission list

You can grant storage permission to an app via Settings > Apps > Google Play Store > Manage Android preferences > Apps & notifications > App permissions > Storage .

Android defines two permissions related to storage: READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE and WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE . As you can see, permissions are only defined for accessing external storage. That means that every app, by default, has permissions to access its internal storage.

Change permissions based on their type

To read and write data to external storage, the app required WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE and READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE system permission. These permissions are added to the AndroidManifest. xml file. Add these permissions just after the package name .
