Permissions error, EXPO 43

[anthonywebster]

Hi, I just updated the expo sdk to version 43 and now it doesn't work on android phone, it shows me the error message with the permissions. He asks me if I give permission to access the images etc, and I give him permission and then he shows me the message that permissions were not granted

{ "expo-images-picker": "^2.2.3", "expo-media-library": "~13.0.3", "expo": "^43.0.0", }

os: android version android: 11 brand: samsung

[natysoz]

app.json

{ "expo": { "android": { "permissions": [ "CAMERA", "RECORD_AUDIO", "READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE", "WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE", "USE_BIOMETRIC", "VIBRATE" ], "versionCode": 9 }, } }

[anthonywebster]

Here you can see that the application asks my permission

[anthonywebster]

I would appreciate your help, because I had already launched the application and with this update it stopped working

[natysoz]

hi sorry , well for me the last sdk 43 is working without any issues , i try to reproduce without any luck can u create an expo snack where the problem happens ?

[anthonywebster]

Hello, thank you very much for answering, I will try to create the snack expo. It works very well for me in the simulator and even with expo go, it does not give me any problem, but when the app is installed from google play it returns an error. I think it's not your library's problem, I think the problem is with expo directly because I've been seeing that there are many having problems with expo-media-library. I did a quick test using directly expo-media-library and I skipped the part of asking for permission and the photos were shown, if I ask for permission then it does not show me the images.

I found this: https://github.com/expo/expo/issues/15273

[natysoz]

ill investigate it further

[natysoz]

you are right im trying to fix this issue seems like if user already denied , and we cant ask for permissions again , we must show him a button that lead to app settings where he might allow it manually

[andrey-grach]

Exactly the same issue on Android in standalone app, btw button that should lead to app settings will not help because in app setings permissions allowed to use gallery.

Have you found a solution to this?

Actually I didn't deny ask for permissions, I allowed and in my app settings permissions allowed to use gallery.

Any solution to this?

[anthonywebster]

Unfortunately I haven't found the solution yet. @andrey-grach

[MarouaniALA]

Hi any luck here for this issue, same as on expo 44 permission granted but it shows the error message of permission denied

[natysoz]

hi we are waiting for sdk 45 ,

the permissions should work fine for SDK 43

[daniel]

I think I have the same problem. I recently released an upgrade of my app on Google Play, where I have upgraded to Expo 43 and now I have received 3 bug reports about this problem. I'm unable to reproduce it on my own Android phone or in simulators.

EDIT: I'm using "expo-image-picker" and not this library. I also noticed the message about Expo 45 in the README for this repo.

[Andrew-Jang]

Hi any updates to this issue?

[natysoz]

still waitin for sdk 45 ....

[Andrew-Jang]

I was able to fix the issue by using eas build instead of expo build!

How? I have just tried with EAS build and still the same result users just cannot pick images...

[natysoz]

fixed with new version .

[majirosstefan]

If you are using Expo 44, and want to fix it in standalone / ejected apps, for us it was enough to add permissions into Android manifest like in this thread: https://github.com/expo/expo/issues/15273 and here https://github.com/natysoz/expo-images-picker/issues/58
