Losing access to folder contents after device reboot

[Tamerlanchiques]

Hi!

My case is in-app music player. User opens some directories (openDocumentTree) and watch music content in the app UI.

All works fine till device reboot. After reboot I see list of persisted folders (persistedUriPermissions) but when I trying to access contents of folder I get "No permission granted" error. Ask user for granting permissions each time is not user friendly and I looking for solution on this issue.

Watched your example app but seen same problem there: list of persisted uris and no permission on reading contents each device reboot.

Quick demo of problem.

After some research I found that we need strictly specify that we need grant access across device reboots . As I can see your openDocumentTree function has parameter 'persistablePermission' that looks like granting permissions across reboots is default behaviour but seems not work.

So… what can I do for granting folder contents read permissions device across reboots?

// whether or not the selected URIs should be persisted across app and device reboots. persistablePermission: true,

What is your Android version?

Emulator Android version on the related video demo is Android Q (10), 29 API level.

Problem keeps on real devices (Huawei and Samsung tablets).
